<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Dear Shreedhar,<br></div>Although I believe that your contribution in blender would be very helpful, I would recommend to you to use Gazebo and ROS for such matters, since the robotics community there is much more developed and more users would be able to profit from your contribution in such matters.<br>
</div>Others have already implemented navigation/motion planning algorithms in VGAs (CUDA and OpenCL) in various algorithms so I would suggest a proper state of the art before starting to see what is already out there.<br>
</div>Best regards and good luck in your project,<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 1, 2013 at 12:18 PM, Shreedhar Pawar <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:shreedhar22@gmail.com" target="_blank">shreedhar22@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div> There are many people who have build algorithms of estimating image depths, but the area of parallel computing with OpenCL is a bit unexplored. OpenCL is better than CUDA in terms of portability(i.e. the code can be used with any graphic card or any multiprocessing CPU and even on handheld devices) which is the reason I choose to use it.</div>
<div> Please let me know whether I can do this project for Blender, so that I will send the details of the parallel algorithm and how it is better than any of the algorithms outside.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanking You,</div>
