Learning objectives
The purpose of the course is transfer to the students the knowledge
needed to design and implement artificial vision systems, and an
expertise useful for their future job. During the course the foundamentals
and methodologies will be presented, and advanced topics will be
discussed also through specific seminars. Laboratory activities will also
be performed. Students need to be able to develop software, mainly inUnix environment.

Teaching methods
The main topics of the course will benefit from laboratory activities and
demonstations. Each student will have to develop a project which will be
evaluated for the final examination.
Assessment methods and criteria
Written test, evaluation of the project with oral exam.
