> Scope
> After the successful meetings in Vienna (2007) and Stanford (2008),
> the third ACM/IEEE International Conference on Distributed Smart
> Cameras will be held at Como, Italy. The conference provides an
> opportunity for researchers working in the areas of smart camera
> architectures, algorithm design, embedded vision-based processing,
> and smart environments to exchange their most recent results.
> Offering insight into the potentials and challenges of distributed
> vision networks and presentation of design methodologies employed by
> leading research groups working in these areas are also the
> objectives of the conference. Presentations accompanied by
> demonstrations and contributions based on industrial applications
> are also of interest.
>
> Topics of interest within the scope of the conference include:
> - Distributed vision processing algorithms
> - Distributed appearance modelling
> - Fusion of vision and other sensors
> - Collaborative feature extraction, data and decision fusion
> - Architectures and protocols for camera networks
> - Smart camera architectures
> - Image sensing techniques for smart cameras
> - Embedded vision programming
> - Wireless and mobile image sensor networks
> - Position discovery and middle-ware applications
> - Vision-based smart environments
> - Surveillance and tracking applications
> - Multi-view vision for Human-Computer Interfaces
> - 3D scene analysis
> - Distributed multimedia and gaming applications
>
