Where Research Meets Industry

Imaging the Invisible

Agenda

A major advantage of machine vision is that a variety of sensory sources can be used. Image processing methods can be applied to images - regardless of how they were generated. Consequently, machine vision is not dependent on images as we know them as humans. Extensions of human perception are possible in many ways: spectrally by image acquisition, e.g. in the ultraviolet, infrared or terahertz range of electromagnetic waves, as well as by extending the color channels in multi- and hyperspectral images, by using polarization or temporally by using high-speed imaging. Images can also be created using other recording modalities, as is the case with thermography and acoustic imaging.

The European Machine Vision Forum 2025 will focus on methods, systems and applications based on such images of the “invisible”. Of particular interest here are sensor systems and methods for acquiring image data as well as procedures for evaluating them..

The European Machine Vision Forum is an annual event of the European Machine Vision Association - EMVA. The aim is to foster interaction between the machine vision industry and academic research to learn from each other, discuss the newest research results as well as problems from applications, learn about emerging application fields, and to discuss research cooperation between industry and academic institutes. The overall aim is to accelerate innovation by translating new research results faster into practice.

The forum is directed to scientists, development engineers, software and hardware engineers, and programmers both from research and Industry.

What to expect

Plenary sessions with carefully selected contributed and invited talks, presenting a broad variety of a focused topic of the forum.
Extended coffee and lunch breaks and evening get-together for Networking.
Teaser sessions dedicated to poster presentations as well as hardware and software demonstrations with ample room for discussions in small groups. Each participant can submit papers and posters for free and also show demos (table-top exhibition possibilities).

Each participant will receive a certificate of his participation detailing the program.
