VISIONKIT

A library of computer vision
processing tools

VisionKit®

Computer vision systems enable computers to automate repetitive visual tasks, freeing human experts to concentrate on higher-value activities.

VisionKit, Charles River Analytics’ library of computer vision components, allows developers to rapidly prototype vision systems using our advanced technology. The components are written in C++, and are intended for real-time performance, while still offering a developer-friendly algorithm prototyping environment.

Features & Benefits

Callable from C/C++ on Windows

Use VisionKit® to quickly build systems that: 

  • Find targets
  • Automate surveillance
  • Recognize motion
  • Read signs
  • Navigate autonomously
  • Automate image and video noise/artifact removal
  • Enhance document images
  • Use inexpensive video cameras to create 3D records
  • Assist in video truthing

Enhance, segment, and classify:

  • 2-D images (such as IR, MMW, visible light)
  • 3-D data (laser-radar, stereo)
  • 1-D data (vibrometry, acoustic)

3-D models from multiple 2-D views

  • Automated volumetric reconstruction
