Software Supports The Seamless Stitching Together Of Multiple Images

Originally developed as a key component of a color CCD camera-based microscanner system used to acquire images of tissue sample slides commonly processed as part of medical education programs, pathological diagnostic investigations and sundry scientific research and development efforts, the software is suitable for use in other areas involving items of interest that are too large to be imaged in their entirety at the desired or required resolutions.
Stitched together images of semiconductor devices, microcircuits, flexible circuits, solar cells, ceramic tiles, carpet tiles, textiles, printed substrates, paper currency, stamps, casino playing cards, etc., could enable companies to implement more efficient automated inspection of such products by AVIA(TM) (Automated Visual Information Analysis) and other machine vision software specifically developed to provide reliable detection of subtle defects that reside in extremely large images.
The digitization of large skins/hides on certain automated leather cutting systems is already accomplished by piecing together many snapshots acquired in sequence by an indexing camera. In this case, use of the software to improve the image stitching performance of these systems would result in more accurate nesting and cutting operations and ultimately better yields.
