#173923 - Patents do have their uses.
In one of those bizzare moments that life sometimes throws up I had a phone call from one of the competitors of the company which I currently work for.It seems that they had done a patent search seen my name on a patent on something that they were interested in and they want me to go and work for them and show them how its done.
They currently do all their image processing in software and don't really understand the benefits of image procesing in hardware, but are willing to learn it seems.
It just seems strange that we were discussing this only the other day, maybe there was something in the air.
