Sponsor: 

Canadian Image Processing and Pattern Recognition Society (CIPPRS) is the sponsor of  Vision Interface (VI) - the oldest (since 1977) annual conference on computer vision, image processing and pattern recognition hold  in Canada, which since 2004 is renamed to Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV). 

CIPPRS welcomes membership from all countries. CIPPRS members have significant  reduction in VI registration fees and may also request a free hard-copy of the VI proceedings. You can register to CIPPRS online using its website.

In 2003 the International Conference on Vision Interface  has been renamed Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV2004).  The 17th Vision Interface conference  thus became  the 1st Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision.   The focus of the conference remains the same,  but with additional emphasis on the areas of Robot Vision and Medical Imaging.
