Significant progress has been made on the GPU implementation for the image mosaicing application. Features that have been added include:
- Support for image streaming using the Blackmagic image capture card.
- GPU support for feature extraction using SIFT in real-time.
- Feature matching, homography estimation and image blending on the GPU in real-time.
- Support for adding surgical workflows in the application.
- Support for loading camera calibration settings.
Future work includes working closely with the clinicians to identify new set of requirements to take this closer to clinical use.
Additionally, I would be working on the research projects that we identified last month and build them into this new framework.
