Synopsis
The second edition of this accepted reference work has been updated to reflect the rapid developments in the field and now covers both 2D and 3D imaging. Written by expert practitioners from leading companies operating in machine vision, this one-stop handbook guides readers through all aspects of image acquisition and image processing, including optics, electronics and software. The authors approach the subject in terms of industrial applications, elucidating such topics as illumination and camera calibration. Initial chapters concentrate on the latest hardware aspects, ranging from lenses and camera systems to camera-computer interfaces, with the software necessary discussed to an equal depth in later sections. These include digital image basics as well as image analysis and image processing. The book concludes with extended coverage of industrial applications in optics and electronics, backed by case studies and design strategies for the conception of complete machine vision systems. As a result, readers are not only able to understand the latest systems, but also to plan and evaluate this technology. With more than 500 images and tables to illustrate relevant principles and steps.

Newspapers & Magazines
[The editor] has compiled a wealth of information that addresses topics at both practical and theoretical levels. The book covers areas such as general system-design principles, lighting, optics, camera systems, computer interfaces, and algorithms. ...Section nine, "Machine Vision in Manufacturing," ...provides a solid introduction to what vision systems can do and the problems they can solve. Designers will ...find much useful information in the section "Lighting in Machine Vision." This chapter provides just the type of explanations and illustrations that help engineers properly plan and assemble light sources for an application. If you still perceive lighting techniques to be black magic, turn to this chapter for advice. I cannot think of another source that offers as much practical information about lighting. This reference book provides many helpful diagrams and photographs that illustrate how algorithms work, the results of lighting components in various ways, and how camera systems operate.
