Open eVision 1.1; New Flexible Masks and More Image Processing Functions

Open eVision is a rich suite of reliable, powerful and flexible software tools dedicated to image processing and analysis. Open eVision contains a set of libraries designed to be integrated into your C++, .NET or ActiveX application. Open eVision 1.1 introduces the Flexible Masks feature. To add flexibility to the shape of the ROI, Open eVision supports Flexible Masks for selected functions of the EasyObject and EasyImage libraries. A mask represents a two-class segmentation of pixels which separates the associated image in do-care areas (that must be considered) and don’t-care areas (that should not be considered). Flexible masks support complex and disconnected shapes. Download the free evaluation program on www.euresys.com.

Open eVision 1.1, the software tools dedicated to image processing and analysis from Euresys, introduces the Flexible Masks feature.

Masking a region is a powerful way of restricting the processing to a part of the image. The masked regions are freely shaped. They can even be disconnected. A mask is a BW8 image coming from any program including Open eVision. Flexible Masks are supported as an argument for selected functions.

Open eVision 1.1 also includes several new image processing functions such as two feature point detectors: the optimal Canny edge detector and the Harris corner detector popular thanks to its strong invariance to rotation, illumination variation and image noise. On top of these, a new morphological operator, the Hit-and-Miss transform (on gray-scale plus color images) has been added.

Open eVision 1.1 is thread-safe and supports the latest OS including Windows Vista®. It is designed to be integrated into your C++, .NET or ActiveX application.

The distribution, installation and software-based licensing procedures of Open eVision have been specifically tailored to the needs of OEMs and system integrators.
