Horn, a leading researcher in the area of human and machine vision for many years, has written an excellent textbook on the subject, which is emminently accessible to engineers, teachers, and scientists working in the vision area.
Passive Navigation and Structure from Motion īerthold K. Reflectance Map: Photometric Stereo Reflectance Map Shape from Shading. Image Processing: Continuous Images Discrete Images. Binary Images: Geometrical Properties Topological Properties. The many exercises complement and extend the material in the text, and an extensive bibliography will serve as a useful guide to current research.ĬontentsImage Formation and Image Sensing And the material on photometric stereo and the extended Gaussian image points the way to what may be the next thrust in commercialization of the results in this area. The chapters on binary image processing, for example, help explain and suggest how to improve the many commercial devices now available. Its coverage includes a great deal of material that important to engineers applying machine vision methods in the real world. An outgrowth of the author's course at MIT, Robot Vision presents a solid framework for understanding existing work and planning future research. It covers even the most recent research and will provide a useful and current reference for professionals working in the fields of machine vision, image processing, and pattern recognition. As a member of various associations, we participate and contribute to several expert working groups in engineering, science and in national and international standardization.This book presents a coherent approach to the fast moving field of machine vision, using a consistent notation based on a detailed understanding of the image formation process. We are certified according to ISO 9001/14001 and BS OHSAS 18001.
Workplace and occupational health and safety is a top priority for us. Our products comply with the international quality standards and are manufactured in compliance with common environmental regulations.
climatic testing, signal verification etc.). Moreover, each individual system has to undergo various quality and stress tests before being delivered to our customers (e.g. Independent institutes are already involved in pre-production stages to test and qualify the performance and sustainability of our products. In order to meet the high-quality demands that we set ourselves, we perform extensive testing of our products. For the future, we aim to remain our customer’s most reliable partner with high-quality products “made in Germany”.
