Image Acquisition and Preprocessing: Foundations for Machine Vision

by P. K. Sinha

Overview

Image Acquisition and Pre-Processing: Foundations for Machine Vision provides a unique combination of the operational details of imaging hardware and analytical theories of low-level image processing functions. By a skilful blend of optics, stage lighting, and framegrabber descriptions, and detailed theories of CCD and CMOS image sensors, image formation, and camera calibration, the image acquisition part of the book provides a comprehensive reference text for image acquisition. The preprocessing part brings together a wide range of enhancement and filtering kernels and imaging functions through well-structured analytical bases. With unified coverage of image acquisition modules and preprocessing functions, this book bridges the gaps between hardware and software on one hand and theory and applications on the other. It is a useful design reference for students, researchers, application and product engineers, and systems integrators.
