In the past, machine vision was dominated by cameras, frame grabbers--image-acquisition devices in general--and less attention was paid to software. Innovations still abound in image acquisition today, but a multi-tasking [...]

For visitors to Stuttgart, the main attractions are often the German hospitality, the beauty of the countryside and the high-end shopping in this quaint, but cosmopolitan city. But, for four [...]

Tire kickers stayed home and the show floor was sparse at times, but the booths were packed with interested buyers hovering over shelves and camera technology that included colorful, fast [...]

Bandwidth is increasing. Storage is improving. Raw data can now be streamed into storage at 200 megabytes per second and higher. Data from dozens of MRI or CT slices, each [...]

Imaging in medicine has come a long way since the first positron emission tomography (PET) scanners, but it is just the beginning. The technology is being used in new and [...]

Faster data transfer speeds, higher resolution, real-time processing. These are all goals of most imaging users. These also require bandwidth, a commodity in short supply as devices gobble up CPU [...]

* Lighting consistency is critical in a multi-monitor, diagnostic situation. * Whitepoints will drift over time toward a yellow hue. * Monitoring the whitepoint and adjusting for shifts in the [...]

Scientists are using imaging software and high-powered computing systems to help answers questions that have been asked by mankind since the beginning of time--questions such as 'Where do we come [...]

* More than 60.000 images were taken to produce the 3-D visualization rendering of the child mummy. * A visualization system running ray-tracing software was able to take the more [...]

The Discovery shuttle launch appeared flawless, but that was what the eye could see. What the eyes could not see was captured by an upgraded network of electronic imaging equipment [...]

The Patriot GEM-T missile scorches across the New Mexican desert. The weapon intercepts o target drones and destroys them. Monitoring the test is a slew of sophsiticated testing equipment that [...]

Here they come, spinning around the stretch. Hardware and software are neck and neck, pushing each other forward. Who will win? The customer is who will win because it is [...]

'An imaging system, by definition, needs to integrate. We expect the individual components to integrate flawlessly. We expect them to merge together for a perfect system.' For those of you [...]

The tragedy is biblical in nature. Water rising. Thousands feared dead. Lawlessness in the streets. But, could the damage been mitigated? Not entirely, certainly. Hurricane Katrina was a force that [...]

A standard designed to simplify data specification sheets by creating an 'apples-to-apples' requirement of types of data included may be released in August. The standard, known as the 1288 standard, [...]

I watched the video, but I didn't see, not at first. I watched as the booster rockets propelled Discovery off launch pad 39. I marveled as the external fuel tank [...]

I want to be an educated consumer. When I buy something, I like to believe that I've done some due diligence and have some idea of the quality and value [...]

The multiple uses of imaging technology, long lauded in the pages of Advanced Imaging magazine, are also being pushed by some of the world's leading machine-vision associations as a way [...]

OK, I'm frustrated. I am frustrated with many of our elected representatives in Congress. And I don't get frustrated easily. Watching our elected officials scramble over each other to get [...]

A panel of technology experts ranked organic light emitting diode (OLED) technologies used in flat-panel displays, lighting and other opto-electronic applications, as one of the top 25 non-medically related technological [...]

Imaging technology uses are broad, and for some, its capabilities are worrisome. For some, the same technology that can track the flight of a missile, capturing images as if the [...]

From my first day as editor of Advanced Imaging magazine, I have heard the term 'Core Technology Products,' meaning that the magazine covers the technology of imaging, and how that [...]

While reading a recent news story about digitized fingerprints, I was reminded about the old saw: 'Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.' The Chicago Tribune recently ran a [...]
