My role

I had the privilege of working on this project while I was employed as a research assistant with the Computational Vision Group at the University of Reading. The University of Reading was in charge of the work packages that dealt with camera calibration, motion detection, object tracking, object categorisation, object localisation and data fusion. As a group we published a number of conference and journal papers on research done for this project \(-\) please see the publications page for more information.
