I received the following information from Teleo Research and thought some 
of you may be interested.

---------------------------------------------

Teleos Research has developed an innovative active-vision architecture
which provides frame-rate visual measurements and supports an evolving
set of modalities, including range, motion, color, texture, shape, and
edge position.  We are developing a family of products based on this
architecture to address a range of price/performance and modality
requirements.

Our first system, PRISM-3, is a high-performance, high-cost (around
$100K) instance of the architecture optimized to provide frame-rate
stereo and motion measurement through the use of proprietary
accelerator technology.  It is packaged as a stand-alone VME-based
system which integrates an active stereo camera head, digitizer,
accelerator boards, software, and ethernet communications.  It is
presently operational at several customer sites.

Teleos is currently developing a second, lower-cost product which will
provide similar measurement capabilities, but with performance
trade-offs, where necessary, in measurement latency, number of
measurements per second, or image field size.  Our goal, however, is
to maintain real-time active-vision capabilities, to support a broad
range of measurment modalities, and to offer a clean programming
interface making visual perception more accessible to higher-level,
application-oriented software.

We seek to open a dialogue with potential users of such products in
the research community to exchange information and gather feedback on
specific requirements (measurement modalities, performance
characteristics, cost sensitivity, etc.)
