Well, I guess it depends if you start at writing your own compiler, or
the OS, or the c lib... or maybe you use a vision library. ;]

Just for example http://www.intel.com/technology/computing/opencv/
which was used for http://www.washucsc.org/~jha/ibl/. No idea how much
that took time, but he used avaliable things, and added the missing
parts. Integrating a system like that in Blender would be nice.
