GraphLab Computer Vision Toolkit aims to provide fully distributed wrappers to algorithms in OpenCV, an open-source library aimed at real-time computer vision. Currently, the only implemented algorithm is Image-Stitching, where the goal is to create a composite panoramic image from a collection of images.

Eventually, GraphLab Computer Vision Toolkit will become it’s own spin-off project called CloudCV, a comprehensive system that will provide access to state-of-the-art computer vision algorithms on the cloud.

CloudCV: Large-Scale Parallel Computer Vision on the Cloud

CloudCV will be accessible to everyone:

1. Computer vision researchers who do not want to or do not have resources to reinvent a large-scale distributed computer vision system
2. Scientists who are not computer vision experts but have large image data collections that  needs to be analyzed
3. Developers and users who simply want black-box computer vision APIs.
