Image Processing Custom Editing Form
Image Types
The tool can accept unsigned 8-bit, signed 16-bit, and signed 32-bit images as input. The
processing is usually performed in the defined type, based on input or operand image, or in a
promoted type (signed 16-bit), if needed.
The Image Processing Tool output is of the same type as the input image unless the user
overrides the type by setting another value, or an output image already exists.
What is an Image Processing Operation
An image processing operation is a process carried out by the Image Processing Tool on an
Input image. The result of an operation is an output image that can be used by other Adept-
Sight vision tools.
Image Processing operations are typically applied to images before they are processed by
other vision tools. Some complex image processing applications may require two or more
Image Processing operations.
