SLIDE 5 Tentative Projects!
- 3-4 Projects either image post processing or/and firmware
hack oriented.!

, Java or Python (PIL)! – Camera Firmware Hacking (CHDK)!
- Canon A480 (checking on loaning)
!! – (1) Warm-up familiarization project !! – (2) HDR (via image bracketing, or in camera)! – (3) Panorama photo stitching! – (4) White balance, colorization, time lapse, segmentation!
- 1 Final Project (you propose one, worth more than earlier projects) !
- Can be programming, !
- photographic explorative assignment (scientific), or a!

- No line-by-line assistant!
- No exchange of code!
– You are encouraged to ask questions of one another, and to respond to other student's questions (and especially on the email list) !
