DESCRIPTION:"Computer vision is the science and technology of making machi
 nes that see. It is concerned with the theory\, design and implementation 
 of algorithms that can automatically process visual data to recognize obje
 cts and to track and recover their shape and spatial layout. In this talk 
 Prof Cippolla will review techniques for recovering  accurate 3D copies of
  real objects and scenes from images from multiple (and single) views and 
 their applications.\n"\n\nRoberto Cipolla is a Professor of Information En
 gineering with research interests in computer vision and robotics which in
 cludes the recovery of motion and 3D shape of visible surfaces from image 
 sequences\; object detection and recognition\; novel man-machine interface
 s using hand\, face and body gestures\; real-time visual tracking for loca
 lisation and robot guidance\; aplications of computer vision in mobile pho
 nes\, visual inspection and image-retrieval and video search
