One of the many things made possible by the added cores on the quad-core i.MX6 is Computer Vision, and we've been expecting to see lots of applications make use of it.

Well, we just ran across some work being done by Andre Silva.

We found out about Andre a while ago when he was doing work with the i.MX51 and are glad to hear he's pushing the envelope with the i.MX6.

Check out the following in his blog:

Stereo Vision with Kinect (xbox360 device) on i.MX6 processor
Gesture Recognition on i.MX6
Video to Texture Streaming on i.MX6 processor

Andre's posts really highlight how the combination of parts (VPU+GPU+multi-core) can be used to great effect.

Well done, Andre!
