Recognizing Objects from on-Board Vehicle Footage to Build an Educational Foundation for Undergraduate Research in Computer Vision

As the world is getting more connected and processing power increases, the need for undergraduate students to have a solid foundation in machine learning and computer vision is becoming standard [1] [2]. In this paper, we develop a foundation for future computer vision and machine learning work through use of open-source software that can be used on personal and embedded devices. This foundation helps prepare students entering the workforce who will be working in autonomous vehicle safety and car control features.
