The Future of High Performance Machine Vision
Recently several of Alacron’s customers from the inspection and semiconductor industries have asked us to integrate multiple fast large CCD arrays or the new fast high frame rate CMOS sensors with data rates in the 500 to 1000 MB/sec range into a real-time systems.

Advances in Software and Algorithms in the Machine Vision Industry
If the vision engine is the heart of a machine vision system, the software is its soul. The ultimate performance of the machine vision system in an application rests on the performance of the software. Significantly, the software must be appropriate for the application. To determine what is appropriate one first must understand their application.

Computer Vision -- A modern approach
This page contains pointers to draft chapters in various states of maturity and readiness. We are keen for people to use these chapters in teaching classes. Please keep in mind that these are not final versions; this means that there may be errors, ugly pictures, etc. In particular, while all figures are attributed (at least, we hope so), we do not yet have all permissions in. This means that figures may appear or disappear quickly.

Machine Vision Lens Fundamentals
All the information a machine vision system collects comes through the lens. The correct choice of lens can reduce image processing requirements, and improve system performance and robustness. Software cannot correct the effects of a poorly chosen lens.
