OUTLINING A RELEVANT UNDERGRADUATE COURSE ON COMPUTER VISION

Having offered a computer vision course as a 4th year undergraduate elective for almost a decade now prompt me to re-evaluate it, not just with the idea of adding new trends seen at international symposia on a yearly basis but evaluating the course taking into consideration what can be seen as needed outside academia and within academia as a preparation for industry jobs and further studies and research. Thus, this paper suggests the different topics that such a course must cover in order to have a strong background on the necessary steps needed to successfully implement a computer vision system. A discussion regarding software and hardware tools involves what I perceive to be an importance towards covering computer vision based on mobile devices.
