1 IPD Technical Conference February 19 th 2008 Sherlock Future developments

2 Technology  Technologies that affect product features  Powerful and inexpensive DSPs + WinCE/Linux  End of the frequency race / emergence of multi-core CPUs  Wide spread of networking  Remote monitoring/programming of the devices  Cooperation between devices  Remote event notification (errors, etc/email, sms, etc)

3 Sherlock strengths (what works)  Highly visual environment (What you see is what you…)  Ability to rapidly test multiple processing scenarios  Rich set of processing tools  Open architecture through use of plug-ins  processing plug-ins  acquisition plug-ins  Look-and-feel  Updater

4 Sherlock weaknesses (what does not)  Discussion

5 Importance of feedback  Annoying Sherlock quirks  Useful features that you would like to see expanded  Features you would like to see added  Discussion

6 Evolution  New version strategy:  Capitalize on the existing customer experience  Utilize new technology  Introduce new functionality  Don’t change things just for the sake of change  Expand what works, lose what does not

7 Similar product review  Wide range of solutions  Easy, but limited  Single camera  No variables  No custom plug-ins  Hard, but flexible  Slower to prototype and change  Need an expert  What is the right balance?

8 Goals  Features to keep:  Look-and-feel  Most of the useful Sherlock functionality  Features to add:  Remote programming (running on smaller embedded box)  Design for high level processing parallelism to effectively utilize multi-core CPU  Build in cooperation primitives to build “clusters” of processing  Tools plug-ins adding problem specific tracker/GUI/etc.  Discussion….

9 Next version  Look-and-feel similar to Sherlock 7  Sherlock = Image window + instruction tree + variables  Remote programming  More uniformity in the presentation of object settings (property grid)  Addition of “tool” instruction plug-ins  Similar to current algorithms, but more user friendly  Tailored: Tracker/Graphics/Dialog  Flexible type system (arrays-of-arrays, etc)  Smaller hardware platforms support

10 Tools to provide feedback  Direct emails  Partner Forum at www.goipd.comwww.goipd.com
