Report on industrial attachment with Institute of Infocomm Research

Abstract

This report describes the working experience during my industrial attachment with Institute of Infocomm Research. During the industrial attachment, I was tasked with the responsibility of developing projector-camera applications on the mobile platform. Development on the mobile platform proved to be a challenging task. There were several features on the desktop platform that were not implemented onto the mobile platform. The project proved to be very code intensive as there were no available camera APIs compatible with Windows Mobile. Throughout the development of the project, several optimized solutions were made to improve the performance of the application on the mobile platform. This includes finding the appropriate calibration technique, image warping technique, creating custom DirectShow filters and utilizing touchscreen gestures to increase the usability of the application. Enhanced features, such as hand gesture recognition and object detection, of the application will be implemented in future work.
