The Image Processing Handbook, Third Edition by John C. Russ CRC Press, CRC Press LLC ISBN: 0849325323 Pub Date: 07/01/98 Search Tips Search this book: Advanced Search Table of Contents Introduction Image processing is used for two somewhat different purposes: a) improving the visual appearance of images to a human viewer, and b) preparing images for measurement of the features and structures present. The techniques that are appropriate for each of these tasks are not always the same, but there is considerable overlap. This book covers methods that are used for both purposes. To do the best possible job, it helps to know about the uses to which the processed images will be put. For visual enhancement, this means having some familiarity with the human visual process, and an appreciation of what cues the viewer responds to in images. It also is useful to know about the printing process, since many images are processed in the context of reproduction or transmission. The measurement of images generally requires that features be well defined, either by edges or unique (and uniform) brightness or color, texture, or some combination of these factors. The types of measurements that will be performed on entire scenes or individual features are important in determining the appropriate processing steps. It may help to recall that image processing, like food processing or word processing, does not reduce the amount of data present but simply rearranges it. Some arrangements may be more appealing to the senses, and some may convey more meaning, but these two criteria may not be identical nor use identical methods. This handbook presents an extensive collection of image processing tools, so that the user of computer-based systems can both understand those methods provided in packaged software, and program those additions which may be needed for particular applications. Comparisons are presented of different algorithms that may be used for similar purposes, using a selection of representative pictures from light and electron microscopes, as well as macroscopic, satellite and astronomical images. In revising the book for this new edition, I have tried to respond to some of the comments and requests of readers and reviewers. New chapters on the measurement of images and the subsequent interpretation of the data were added in the second edition, and now there is a major new section on the important subject of surface images which includes both processing and measurement. The sections on the ever-advancing hardware for image capture and printing have been expanded and information added on the newest technologies. More examples have been added in every chapter, and the reference list expanded and brought up to date. However, I have resisted suggestions to put “more of the math” into the book. There are excellent texts on image processing, compression, mathematical morphology, etc., that provide as much rigor and as many derivations as may be needed. Many of them are referenced here. But the thrust of this book remains teaching by example. Few people learn the principles of image processing from the equations. Just as we use images to “do science,” so most of us use images to learn about many things, including imaging itself. The hope is that by seeing what various operations do to representative images, you will discover how and why to use them. Then, if you need to look up the mathematical foundations, they will be easier to understand. The reader is encouraged to use this book in concert with a real source of images and a computer-based system, and to freely experiment with different methods to determine which are most appropriate for his or her particular needs. Selection of image processing tools to explore images when you don't know the contents beforehand is a much more difficult task than using tools to make it easier for another viewer or a measurement program to see the same things you have discovered. It places greater demand on computing speed and the interactive nature of the interface. But it particularly requires that you become a very analytical observer of images. If you can learn to see what the computer sees, you will become a better viewer and obtain the best possible images, suitable for further processing. To facilitate this hands-on learning process, I have collaborated with my son, Chris Russ, to produce a CD-ROM that can be used as a companion to this book. The Image Processing Tool Kit contains more than 200 images, many of them the examples from this book, plus over 100 Photoshop-compatible plug-ins that implement many of the algorithms discussed here. These can be used with Adobe Photoshop® or any of the numerous programs (some of them free) that implement the Photoshop plug-in interface, on either Macintosh or Windows computers.

Fourteen years later, Kodak has just announced that it is ending production 1992: DCS200 of Digital Single Lens Reflex cameras. The DCS was a product launched ahead of its potential market, but one which indelibly marked the start of the future of photography. Kodak was smart. It housed its DCS in something photographers were already at home with: a Nikon F3 camera body. All the F3’s functions were retained, and the DCS used standard Nikon lenses. Only the 1991: The original Kodak DCS [100] and DSU 2005: Last of the line – the DCS ProSLR/c focusing screen was changed.

  • KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman Invented an Emulsion-Coating Machine Which Enabled Him to Mass- Produce Photographic Dry Plates
    KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman invented an emulsion-coating machine which enabled him to mass- produce photographic dry plates. 1880 - Eastman began commercial production of dry plates in a rented loft of a building in Rochester, N.Y. 1881 - In January, Eastman and Henry A. Strong (a family friend and buggy-whip manufacturer) formed a partnership known as the Eastman Dry Plate Company. ♦ In September, Eastman quit his job as a bank clerk to devote his full time to the business. 1883 - The Eastman Dry Plate Company completed transfer of operations to a four- story building at what is now 343 State Street, Rochester, NY, the company's worldwide headquarters. 1884 - The business was changed from a partnership to a $200,000 corporation with 14 shareowners when the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company was formed. ♦ EASTMAN Negative Paper was introduced. ♦ Eastman and William H. Walker, an associate, invented a roll holder for negative papers. 1885 - EASTMAN American Film was introduced - the first transparent photographic "film" as we know it today. ♦ The company opened a wholesale office in London, England. 1886 - George Eastman became one of the first American industrialists to employ a full- time research scientist to aid in the commercialization of a flexible, transparent film base. 1888 - The name "Kodak" was born and the KODAK camera was placed on the market, with the slogan, "You press the button - we do the rest." This was the birth of snapshot photography, as millions of amateur picture-takers know it today. 1889 - The first commercial transparent roll film, perfected by Eastman and his research chemist, was put on the market.

  • The DCS Story 17 Years of Kodak Professional Digital Camera Systems 1987-2004
    The DCS Story 17 years of Kodak Professional digital camera systems 1987-2004 Jim McGarvey June 2004 Electro-Optic Camera (1988) By 1987, Kodak had developed the world's first megapixel CCD imager, the M1. A US Government customer contracted with the Federal Systems Division (FSD) to incorporate the M1 into a standard 35 mm camera body to create the first megapixel portable digital camera, truly the prototype of the digital camera system (DCS) product line. It was designed for covert use, with the black box in a camera bag and the ribbon cable to the camera body concealed inside the neck strap. Images were downloaded from the internal hard drive by docking the black box on an Exabyte tape archive unit. (The first digital camera dock!) The Canon F1 film camera body had no electronic interface, so the shutter release was detected by monitoring the battery current. The imager package was mounted to a TE cooler to reduce noise, but cooling was limited to prevent fogging the cover glass and was not very effective. Only one unit was built. The black box electronics were wire wrapped. • Stock Canon F1 body with motor drive • Monochrome KAF-1400 (M1) imager (1320 x 1035, 6.8 µm) with thermoelectric cooler • 10bit A/D Logarithmic amplifier • 10-Mbyte buffer for 6-image burst; buffer image count display • Internal 100-Mbyte SCSI hard drive holds 60 images; disk image count display • Docking archive unit with 2000-MByte Exabyte 8 mm SCSI tape drive and battery charger • Raw image files in Unix TAR format; Time/Date stamp • Intervalometer; log histogram.
