Machine vision systems offer great potential in a large number of
areas of manufacturing industry and are used principally for
Automated Visual Inspection and Robot Vision. This publication
presents the state of the art in image processing. It discusses
techniques which have been developed for designing machines for use
in industrial inspection and robot control, putting the emphasis on
software and algorithms. A comprehensive set of image processing
subroutines, which together form the basic vocabulary for the
versatile image processing language IIPL, is presented. This
language has proved to be extremely effective, working as a design
tool, in solving numerous practical inspection problems. The
merging of this language with Prolog provides an even more powerful
facility which retains the benefits of human and machine
intelligence. The authors bring together the practical experience
and the picture material from a leading industrial research
laboratory and the mathematical foundations necessary to understand
and apply concepts in image processing. Interactive Image
Processing is a self-contained reference book that can also be used
in graduate level courses in electrical engineering, computer
science and physics.
A number of important aspects of intelligent machine vision in one
volume, describing the state of the art and current developments in
the field, including: fundamentals of 'intelligent'image processing
for machine vision systems; algorithm optimisation; implementation
in high-speed electronic digital hardware; implementation in an
integrated high-level software environment and applications for
industrial product quality and process control. Backed by numerous
illustrations, created using the authors IP software, this book
will be of interest to researchers in the field of machine vision
wishing to understand the discipline and develop new techniques.
Also useful for under- and postgraduates.
Intelligent Machine Vision: Techniques, Implementations & Applications brings together the central issues involved in this exciting and topical subject.Drawing on half a century of combined experience, the authors describe state of the art and the latest developments in the field, including:- fundamentals of 'intelligent' image processing, specifically intended for Machine Vision systems;- algorithm optimization;- implementation in high-speed electronic digital hardware;- implementation in an integrated high-level software environment;- applications for industrial product quality and process control.There are hundreds of illustrations in the book, most of them created using the author's 'PIP' software - a sophisticated intelligent image processing package.A demonstration version of this software, as well as numerous examples from the book, are available at the authors' Web site: http://bruce.cs.cf.ac.uk/bruce/index.html
