This is a very readable and enjoyable introduction to image acquisition and processing, with clear straightforward examples to illustrate the concepts, good references to more detailed information, and real-world solutions to show the breadth of vision applications that are possible. -Jeff Kodosky, National Instruments Fellow and father of LabVIEW Vision and image processing can be a very complex and daunting subject, even to the most experienced LabVIEW developers. Until now, no book was available to anyone working with LabVIEW in this area. Thankfully, Christopher Relf has stepped up to the task by providing a wonderful and comprehensive reference, Image Acquisition and Processing with LabVIEW. This book is an absolute must-have for anyone working with image processing in LabVIEW. The material not only covers all the essential LabVIEW imaging software tools (eg, LabVIEW Vision Toolkit), but it also provides an extensive background on optics, cameras, image types, files and formats, lighting, and much more - fundamental topics that are necessary to successfully understand imaging applications. The adage a picture is worth a thousand words is perhaps never more applicable than to this book, which contains ample illustrations and figures that allow readers to quickly grasp the concepts it deals with. In short, if you want to learn about image acquisition and processing, and you work with LabVIEW, you will definitely want this missing manual on your bookshelf. -Jeffrey Travis, LabVIEW consultant, trainer and author of LabVIEW For Everyone and Internet Applications in LabVIEW This book is a comprehensive summary of the image processing tools available within LabVIEW, aswell as other important subjects, such as selection of cameras, lenses, and lighting. The combination of technical descriptions and practical applications is useful. I would recommend this book to anybody that is starting out with vision inspection or is interested in expanding their knowledge of image processing. Any beginner to intermediate-level vision programmer will benefit from this book. Even the folks with more experience in image processing might learn a thing or two. This book is an excellent addition to the LabVIEW reference library. -Bruce Ammons, Founder, Ammons Engineering This is a very readable and enjoyable introduction to image acquisition and processing, with clear straightforward examples to illustrate the concepts, good references to more detailed information, and real-world solutions to show the breadth of vision applications that are possible. -Jeff Kodosky, National Instruments Fellow and father of LabVIEW Vision and image processing can be a very complex and daunting subject, even to the most experienced LabVIEW developers.
