Jerry Alan Fails' Thesis Proposal

IMAGE PROCESSING WITH CRAYONS Jerry Alan Fails Department of Computer Science Masters of Science As computers become faster, smaller, and less expensive, ubiquitous computing, the distribution of computers into everyday spaces, grows at an ever-increasing rate. One area of particular interest is perceptual user interfaces (PUIs). PUI systems use sensing-devices for input, which are coupled with...
