    Study Notes

    Image Processing

    • Image processing involves analyzing and manipulating images.
    • Key stages include data compression, image enhancement, and pattern identification.
    • The output can be a transformed image or a report based on image analysis.

    Image Processing Applications

    • Visualization: Observe objects not visible to the naked eye (e.g., features in satellite photographs).
    • Image Sharpening and Restoration: Creating a clearer image.
    • Image Retrieval: Finding specific images.
    • Pattern Measurement: Measuring objects within images.
    • Image Recognition: Distinguishing objects in images.

    Image Preprocessing

    • Images are preprocessed before being processed with a camera.
    • Preprocessing steps include noise reduction and brightness and contrast enhancement.
    • Better preprocessing leads to improved final image results.

    Image Types

    • Original Image: Typically a grayscale image.
    • Binary Image: Contains only black and white pixels.
    • Histogram Image: Depicts the distribution of pixel values in an image.
    • Edge Image: Emphasizes edges and boundaries within the image.

    Pattern Matching

    • Correlation pattern matching: Searching for similar pieces using pre-defined templates.
    • Geometric pattern matching: Identifying patterns based on shape and geometric properties.

    Image Processing Applications for Identification

    • Optical Character Recognition (OCR): Recognizing text within images.
    • Bar Code and 2D Matrix Code Reading: Decoding information from barcodes and 2D matrix codes.
    • Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR): Recognizing license plates in images.

    RGB Color Model

    • The screen displays colors using a combination of red, green, and blue (RGB), with overlapping colors creating additional hues.
    • Grayscale images, which use shades of gray, are the focus of this course.

    Grayscale Conversion

    • Different methods exist for converting images into grayscale.

    Introduction to Image Processing Course

    • This course focuses on methods and applications of image processing.
