Imaging sensors in the life sciences are improving and databases ‐ gene sequencing, patient records, patient signal and image data ‐ are growing rapidly. Image analysis will provide input to understa nding and analysing biological processes. Automated visual monitoring at the cellular level of biological processes is an enabling technology in the development of cell factories for producing a broad range of chemicals – an essential prerequisite in the transition from a petrochemical to a biobased industry.
Modelling light interaction with bio‐materials allows for designing optimal vision systems for quality and process control and product development. Generative models can be used to make inference about the materials and for synthesizing their dynamic appearance.
Computer assisted creation, processing, and analysis of digital content – as text, sound, images, video, 3D geometry and appearance is enhanced by methodologies for generating content from physical models or from data streams ‐ 3D scannings, street view data, and airborne imagery. Algorithms for geometry processing, object recognition, change detection, and segmentation are central to adding value to these data streams by extracting content. These topics provide solutions for digital entertainment products and the mapping industry.
New interaction devices for computer systems are emerging. For the mobile devices touch screens, motion sensors, cameras and GPS change the user experience of applications such as maps, shopping, games, and social media. For stationary devices these changes are primarily experienced in the form of motion sensitive controllers. The application of commercial devices as well as custom designed devices will provide new possibilities and benefits for digital sound processing, computer graphics and ambient assisted living.
