Arduino 101: Pattern Matching on the Intel Quark SE Microcontro

Patterns, within the context of computational imaging, can be defined as "a more or less repeatable, discernible regularity in the spatial arrangement of a type of theme of more or less recurring objects, with possibly both radiometrical and geometrical features, sometimes referred to as elements of a collection of objects."[i] The term "radiometrical features" refers to what can be called "tone." Machines discern this portion of machine "sight" by measuring how an object responds to electromagnetic radiation. A machine blasts an object with either ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light, or all three and uses the resulting radiation to recognize patterns and compare them against known patterns.
