EasyComVi: A Tool for the Interactive Learning of Computer Vision in Distance Education

This article presents the EasyComVi Tool, an interactive application developed to facilitate the study of Computer Vision for students enrolled in an Engineering Master degree with a Distance Learning methodology. The main objective of this tool is to enable students in subjects related to Computer Vision with a distance learning methodology, to acquire a better understanding of different concepts about the subject studied in a theoretical way, through its interactive visual illustration, in an autonomous way. This tool offers the students the possibility to visualize the results of applying different image processing operations to various example images selecting the value of a set of input parameters. The usefulness and applicability of the tool has been evaluated by means of a questionnaire disseminated among the students of a subject on Computer Vision in a Master's degree in Industrial Engineering. This paper presents the preliminary results obtained in the study carried out, which are very promising and encourage further research in this work.
