ImageSense’08

Workshop on Applications, Systems, and Algorithms for Image Sensing

November 4, 2008, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
Held in conjunction with ACM SenSys 2008.

[Registration is now OPEN]

[Program and Author Instructions]

The improving performance of small form factor and low power image sensing technologies is constantly expanding the sensing capabilities of embedded, wireless, and mobile platforms, thereby enabling new applications. Effective design and deployment of such applications involves addressing many research issues ranging from efficient platform design; in-situ event extraction; storage, processing and communication of large amounts of image data; and privacy issues inherent to image sensing. 

This workshop hopes to provide a forum to discuss the latest research, future directions, challenges, and novel ideas for realizing the potential of image sensor networks. Researchers coming from the multiple related fields of imaging technology, image interpretation, embedded application design, wireless and low power networking, and image data management will have an opportunity to interact and synergize.

Topics

- Applications for distributed low power imaging

- Platforms for image and visual sensing for embedded applications

- Image analysis and interpretation for sensor networks

- In-situ and in-network image information extraction

- Multi-modal sensor fusion including imagers

- Algorithms for adaptive image capture, communication, and retrieval

- Joint optimization of image optics and processing for low power/low cost systems

- Mobile device based image sensing systems

- Mobility, actuation, and control for and using image sensing

- Privacy protection

- System architectures, heterogeneous imagers, and infrastructure design

- Power management

- Industry updates and case studies
