    The goal The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the modern directions of computer vision, which have a tremendous trend in the world in the last two decades. Students will be familiar with the basics of image formation, characteristic features properties in the image, stereo-vision problems, recognition of objects in images or video sequences and computer tools that are being used for.
    The outcome After completing the course, students will be able to independently solve problems related to digital image processing, object recognition and tracking in video sequences, and will be familiar with potential applications in surveillance systems, modern systems for people and objects tracking, medicine, television, professional photography, etc.
