Research GroupsComputational VideoThe Computational Video Group is one of the NRC Institute for Information Technologies 14 research groups and is located in Ottawa, Ontario.
Computational video is the study and application of the processing of streamed video data. This field of research is emerging from the convergence of two technologies:
In addition, past and current research in machine vision has provided some practical solutions to some of the fundamental processing problems inherent in processing video. For example, from a video sequence it is possible to find the camera path, to find faces and people, to interact hands-free with a computer and to make simple 3d models. Finding innovative ways to process digital video and digital images will lead to new and useful technologies in a variety of application areas and will support the trend to ubiquitous video. As such, the Group's staff conducts fundamental research in the computational video field, in order to produce the basic capabilities that are necessary to develop these new technologies. The Group's research is currently targeting the following application areas:
