I was having some corespondence with somebody about some camera soft I wrote, and some new utilities, and that person, who is into research, pointed me to this site:

As to the recent mentioning of neural nets, this may be very interesting to those working on robotic vision and high speed capture for example.



It is a real product, bit expensive still, with very stunning capabilities.



I like it a lot.

It reminds me of what I did - as a graduate student back in 1967 - when I needed to monitor a chemical reaction over a longish time into the 4k memory of a PDP-8; I kept on accumulating the voltages I was reading until theyed changed significantly, then dumped the average voltage since the last significant change into memory, along with the time that I dumped it; I had to take 600usec off from accumulating the data to calculate the average, but it was worth it.

The Zurich guys have more hardware to play with ...
