REU Student	Graduate Mentor	Faculty Advisor
Roy Liu	Luis von Ahn	Manuel Blum

The REU student will build a new game called Peekaboom that will obtain information about the location and shape of the objects in images. The data obtained from this game will be used to build the most comprehensive dataset for training computer vision algorithms. See http://www.peekaboom.org
