Arduino – MPU6050 Getting Ready

English Version. Turns out that I have a MPU6050 (Accelerometer + Gyro sensor) and these days I have gone through the process of learning how to use it. If everything goes well, on this post you will find practical information to configure, calibrate and use this sensor. My “contribution” consists in the development of a…

Computer Vision – Circle detection

Versión en Español Turns out that I have been quite busy these days with my master thesis, but thanks God, I am ready to resume this healthy habit. Today, motivated by an article recently published in “Pattern Recognition” [1], I do have the intention of presenting some basics, problems and some simple examples about circle…

Computer Vision – In focus regions

Versión en Español Turns out that recently I have been taking my first steps into the photography world, and I am discovering a great deal of interesting things I didn’t have think about before. One of the points I have been getting information about is how the auto-focus function works. Besides, some time ago I…

Computer Vision : Tracking!

Spanish Version Turns out that there are countless intelligent ways to track an object within an image: using features descriptors, optical flow, colours, kalman filter etc. But, as I am not a genius, and taking advantage of having done a simplified tracking code for a class project, I would like to use it to discuss in…

Computer Vision #1 – Optical Flow

Spanish version Turns out that computer vision not only works with static images but also with video processing. I am plenty conscious that this post performs a step forward in terms of difficulties, but it is said that the best way to learn concepts is attempting to explain them and, since I want to clarify some details related to…

Computer Vision #0.1 Basics.

Spanish version Turns out that when I was about to finish the plate recognition post, I realised that there are some basic operations that are needed to be previously understood and If I describe them within the post it turns endless. As a timely retreat is a victory, I have decided to write a second introductory post with the…

Computer Vision and Perception #0

Spanish Version Turns out that there are more computer vision applications around us that we actually realise. Perception as a global concept and computer vision as a specific one, are ideas really used in the real world. Behind such reality there are “simple” things like computers reading your plate number, or more “advanced” uses like computer vision aided cancer detection.…
