MIL
MIL is a high-level programming library with an extensive set of optimized
functions for image capture, processing, analysis, transfer, compression, display,
and archiving. Image processing operations include point-to-point, statistical,
spatial filtering, morphological, geometric transformation, and FFT operations.
Analysis operations support calibration, are performed with sub-pixel accuracy,
and include pattern recognition (normalized grayscale correlation and Geometric
Model Finder), blob analysis, edge extraction and analysis, measurement,
metrology, character recognition (template-based and feature-based), code
recognition and verification (1D, 2D and composite code types),
3D reconstruction, and color analysis.
MIL applications are easily ported to new Matrox hardware platforms and can be
designed to take advantage of multi-processing and multi-threading
environments.
MIL-Lite
MIL-Lite is a subset of MIL. It includes all the MIL functions for image
acquisition, transfer, display control, and archiving. It also allows you to perform
processing operations that are typically useful to pre-process grabbed images.
ActiveMIL
ActiveMIL is a set of ActiveX controls that are based on MIL. ActiveMIL was
designed for rapid application development (RAD) tools, such as Microsoft’s
Visual Basic. ActiveMIL is included with MIL (ActiveMIL-Lite is included with
MIL-Lite).
Matrox Inspector
Matrox Inspector is an interactive Windows application for image capture,
processing, analysis, and archiving. MIL application developers can use Matrox
Inspector as a prototyping tool to quickly build proof-of-concept demonstrations.
End users can use Matrox Inspector to perform and automate image enhancement
and measurement tasks.
Matrox Intellicam
Matrox Intellicam is an interactive Windows program that allows for fast video
source interfacing and provides interactive access to all the acquisition features of
your Matrox board. Matrox Intellicam also has the ability to create custom digitizer
configuration format (DCF) files, which MIL and its derivatives use to interface
to specific non-standard video sources. Matrox Intellicam is included with all
Matrox Imaging software products.
