WorldComp and IPCV 08 Day 1
I'm blogging from the road in Vegas and posting this from my phone. I'm using Opera on a WM6 device and it seems to work admirably.
Our flight was delayed on the outbound side so we ended up getting 4 hours of sleep in a hotel in Milwaukee before heading on to Vegas. After a few hotel snafus, we got in to catch the last keynote about reconfigurable computing. Nifty work.
A few notes in no particular order:
* It's nice to see such a diverse crowd. This is truly an international conference.
* The material has been fairly fascinating and there are some interesting topics. I can totally see how to create digital watermarks in images based on one of the talks, so if you need that as an Atalasoft customer, let me or sales know.
* Saw some interesting work on fingerprint recognition that would apply to document binarization.
* Found myself asking critical questions in nearly every session. It's good to geek out.
* At the conference dinner, Rick and I picked our table and companions more or less at random and had some good partners.
Time to clean up for day 2.
