                INDUSTRIAL INSPECTION
 
 One Day BMVA Technical Meeting in association with UKIVA and IEE/E4 to
 be held on the 1st December 1999 at British Institute of Radiology, 36
 Portland Place, London. 
 
 Chairperson: Majid Mirmehdi (University of Bristol)
 
 ABSTRACT:
     Industrial Inspection is one of the most profitable areas of
 Computer Vision as it is one of the few areas which can truly provide
 working, practical, real-world solutions to real-world problems. It
 combines image acquisition devices, high-speed computers, simple and
 complex algorithms, and robotics to oversee and automate manufacturing
 processes. The aim of this meeting is to bring together a number of
 talks on the application of novel image processing and computer vision
 techniques to solve real-world problems.
