Computer Vision for Embedded Systems

Purdue University via edX

Overview

This course provides an overview of running computer vision (OpenCV and PyTorch) on embedded systems (such as Raspberry Pi and Jetson). The course emphasizes the resource constraints imposed by embedded systems and examines methods (such as quantization and pruning) to reduce resource requirements. This course will have programming assignments and projects proposed by the students.

Required texts or technologies:

This course does not have a required text. The course will read recently published papers. Students will use Google Colab for programming assignments.
