Subject: 3D Visualization Tool (DTI 100M)
Can anyone comment on a product from Dimension Technologies Inc. (16
Anderson Ave, Rochester, NY 14607) called the DTI 100M. It is a PC-based
visualization tool that uses a Yamaha DisplayMaster VGA card, and
it is supposed to produce "clear, bright, autostereoscopic images".
(I'm not sure that I understand what an autostereoscopic image is;
the advertising indicates that no special glassess are required.)
Has anyone purchased this device? Can anyone describe the technique used?
With thanks,

rasterfile scanned image of Lenna - the woman with the hat,
as scanned from (I'm told) a certain men's magazine about a
decade ago. Lenna is currently a bar maid somewhere in
Europe.

Subject: looking for card for PC
Hello,
I am looking for a card for a PC which allows, when working together
with a frame grabber, to write images in DIGITAL form onto a normal
video tape recorder. The card should also be able to retrieve the
digitally stored images from the video tape to a monitor (PAL/CCIR).
The card should preferably be able to do the job in real time.
Anyone who can provide me with names of companies, card descriptions
and/or prices, please mail the information to:
Michel Assenheimer
e-mail : <FNASSEN@WEIZMANN.BITNET>
or <FNASSEN@WEIZMANN.WEIZMANN.AC.IL>
Thanks,
Michel Assenheimer

Subject: Objects in the collision course...(data requested)
I'm looking for real data of objects in collision course with a moving
camera. I accept both 'moving camera in a static environment' and 'moving
camera in a dynamic environment' cases. The objects should be preferably
bounded in the image (meaning, that we can see the whole object in all the
frames).
Thanks in advance!
Dario.

Subject: ANN Workshop in Atlantic City, Jun 17 1990
Workshop on
Artificial Neural Networks & Pattern Recognition
Sponsored by
The International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR)
Sands Hotel
Atlantic City, New Jersey
June 17, 1990
Recent developments in artificial neural networks (ANN's) have caused
a great deal of excitement in the academic, industrial, and defense
communities. Current ANN research owes much to several decades of
work in statistical pattern recognition (SPR); indeed, many
fundamental concepts from SPR have recently found new life as research
topics when placed into the framework of an ANN model.
The aim of this one-day workshop is to provide a forum for interaction between
the leading researchers from the SPR and ANN fields. As pattern recognition
practitioners, we seek to address the following issues:
**In what ways do artificial neural networks differ from the well-known
paradigms of statistical pattern recognition? Are there concepts in ANN for
which no counterpart in SPR exists (and vice versa?)
**What benefits can come out of interaction between ANN and SPR researchers?
**What advantages, if any, do ANN techniques have over SPR methods in dealing
with real world problems such as object recognition, pattern classification,
and visual environment learning?
