Introduction
7. Applications

What is image processing? And its applications

Image processing has been developed in response to


three major problems concerned with pictures:
• Picture digitization and coding to facilitate
transmission, printing and storage
• Picture enhancement and restoration in order, for
example, to interpret more easily pictures of the surface
of other planets taken by various probes or to identify,
rectify, classify pictures of security, medical, controls etc.
• Picture segmentation and description as an early stage
in Machine Vision.
