A new Extension Pack lets Mathcad 2000 users explore and manipulate image data.
Adept Scientific announces the release of the Image Processing Extension Pack for Mathcad Professional 2000, the world's leading calculation and documentation software for technical projects.
With over 140 features designed for image processing, analysis and visualisation, the Extension Pack extends Mathcad Professional 2000's capabilities to provide a comprehensive solution for all image processing applications.
When combined with Mathcad Professional 2000's integrated technical design environment and live document interface, the new Image Processing Extension Pack provides a powerful solution for iterative exploration and investigative analysis.
Its extensive ability to help analyse, manipulate, extract and identify critical image features makes it ideal for researchers, design engineers, system analysts and image specialists across a broad spectrum of industries that rely on advanced image processing techniques.
It is also a valuable tool for students studying electrical engineering or computer sciences.
The Image Processing Extension Pack for Mathcad Professional 2000 is a significant upgrade to the previous version.
It provides over 50 new and enhanced functions for filtering, morphology, edge detection and object identification.
Other new capabilities include segmentation, for analysing specific regions of interest; and feature extraction, for quantifying object features such as dimensions.
The new Extension Pack also lets users take advantage of Mathcad's regular matrix operations and numerics to analyse images stored in matrix form.
Other improvements include an interactive image viewer for easy manipulation, various file formats to make it easier to work with other applications, and expanded electronic documentation with templates and application examples.
With the Extension Pack installed, users can incorporate their image processing work with publication-quality technical documents, graphs and presentations created in Mathcad.
"MathSoft has created a comprehensive set of essential functions for processing two-dimensional images that works fast and integrates naturally within the already powerful mathematical environment offered by Mathcad 2000," says Dr.Hernan Jara, director of Radiological Physics at Boston Medical Centre.
"The Image Processing Extension Pack will be a valuable tool for researchers and educators in the field of medical ageing." Released in September 1999, Mathcad Professional 2000 is the latest version of the calculation, visualisation and documentation software used by around 1.2 million scientists, engineers and other technical professionals around the world.
Mathcad streamlines technical projects by combining the power of advanced calculation, computer-aided design and graphical analysis tools with the ability to document, share and publish calculations with colleagues.
The new Image Processing Extension Pack is just one of a range of add-ons available, along with Mathcad Professional 2000, from MathSoft's UK/Ireland distributor Adept Scientific.
