Intelligent Machine Vision

Brings together the central issues involved in intelligent machine vision. The book describes state-of-the-art and the latest developments in the field, including: fundamentals of "intelligent" image processing, specifically intended for Machine Vision systems; and algorithm optimization. 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:
