Founder and chairman of Cluster Computer Vision Noord Nederland (42 companies) Founder and chairman of Platform Beeldverwerking HBO (10 Universities) More info www.nhl.nl/computervision Director and owner of Van de Loosdrecht Machine Vision BV, Buitenpost, Netherlands March 2001 – Present Product is the software package VisionLab. VisionLab is a portable library (C++) and a development environment for machine vision applications, pattern recognition and classification with neural networks. VisionLab runs on Windows, Linux and Android platforms with x86, x64, ARM or PowerPC architecture. More than 170 operators of the library have been parallelized using OpenMP for multi-core CPUs. There is also a toolbox for using OpenCL kernels from both script language and C++. Research project "Acceleration sequential machine vision algorithms using commodity parallel hardware" in collaboration with the Limerick Institute of Technology in Ireland. This project focus on both multi-core CPUs and GPUs. Tools used are C++, OpenMP and OpenCL. More info: www.vdlmv.nl.
