EMVA announces Young Professional Award 2017
The European Machine Vision Association EMVA is once again presenting the Young Professional Award - for the first time with prize money.
The EMVA Young Professional Award is an annual prize that honors the "exceptional and innovative work of a student or young professional in machine vision". The award is specifically intended to encourage students to focus on the technical challenges of machine vision and to apply the latest research results in machine vision to the practical requirements of the machine vision industry.
The criteria for the award are:
- An outstanding innovative work in the field of machine vision with industrial relevance. The industrial focus is freely selectable. The commercialization of a product should be intended, but does not have to be implemented yet.
- The work can be either a master's thesis or a doctoral thesis.
- The thesis must have been written in the last twelve months at a European university or in cooperation with a European university as part of the course. Direct collaboration with a company is a must.
- The focus of the work is on innovation and industrial application.
Interested parties can send a two-page abstract of the work in English to the EMVA by April 21, 2017 at the latest.
The winner of the award will be announced at the 15th EMVA Business Conference in Prague from June 22 to 24, 2017, where they will have the opportunity to present their work. In addition to prize money of 1,500 euros, the winner will receive free participation in the EMVA Business Conference, including payment of all travel expenses and, for the first time, a free ticket to the European Machine Vision Forum 2017 in Vienna.
