Computer Vision is a technology which aims at teaching computers how to see. It employs various techniques of image processing and artificial intelligence to obtain descriptions of objects, for use by robotic systems or intelligent support systems. It can be employed as a human-computer interaction instrument, for seamless and intuitive collaboration between humans and computers.

We are working on various key technologies of Computer Vision in the context of human-computer interaction:

• Hand gesture tracking
• Face recognition
• Environment analysis

Besided in Creative Technology, Computer Vision has many applications in other areas such as security and safety.

An important aspect of computer vision applications is the capability to perform in real-time, in order to enable a fast human-computer interaction.
