Creating programmable embedded platforms for image processing applications

The School wishes to recruit a research student to work as part of a newly formed project team between Queens University Belfast and Heriot-Watt University involved in creating innovative hardware solutions for image analysis.

The project also includes multi-national companies such as Thales, Xilinx and Andor and a key spin-off company Analytics Engines Ltd.

The aim is to create novel, high performance, processors for image processing sensors on heterogeneous architectures, including Many Core, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) based processors; their successful development would have major implications for medical imaging and security applications.
