Image Acquisition and Preprocessing for Machine Vision Systems

[[ Machine vision comprises three integrated processes: acquisition, preprocessing, and image analysis. While many resources discuss application-specific image analysis, there has been no unified account of image acquisition hardware and preprocessing--until now.]] [[ [i]Image Acquisition and Preprocessing for Machine Vision Systems[/i] is a comprehensive, exhaustive reference text detailing every aspect of acquisition and preprocessing, from the illumination of a scene to the optics of image forming, from CCD and CMOS image capture to the transformation of the captured image.]]
