6.801 Machine Vision

6.801 Machine Vision (Fall 2020, MIT OCW). Instructor: Prof. Berthold Horn. This course is an introduction to the process of generating a symbolic description of the environment from an image. It covers the physics of image formation, image analysis, binary image processing, and filtering. Machine vision has applications in robotics and the intelligent interaction of machines with their environment. Students taking the graduate version complete additional assignments.

Lecture 17 - Photogrammetry, Orientation, Axes of Inertia, Symmetry, Orientation

Instructor: Prof. Berthold Horn. This lecture marks a transition in what we have covered so far in the course from lower-level machine vision to higher-level problems, beginning with photogrammetry.
