Khoros 2 Polymorphic Data Model and Tools
In Digital Image Processing (DIP) we take advantage of the advances in
technology (computers, data networks, user interfaces, data processing
algorithms) and combine them with the powerful Human Visual System (HVS) to
solve problems. A principal goal in image processing is to gain
understanding and insight into the data under observation. To facilitate
this proceess, a fast prototyping environment and visualization operators
are needed.
A visual language provides a visual programming environment
for quick prototyping and testing. Interactive (closed-loop) and
non-interactive (open-loop) visualization tools provide for the display
of data. A set of desired (1D, 2D, 2.5D and 3D) visualization tools
are: signal plotting, surface plotting, image display, image editing,
image animation, geometry and volume rendering. Also, tools that enable
the user to visualize and edit color maps, print map values associated with
image pixel values, display pixel values, and the display of a zoom
image greatly facilitates digital image processing operations.
