IMAGE PROCESSING STATION

十位视觉科学家要求图像仪器 正在处理。所要求的设备包括五个主要部件 组件，位于两个相邻的房间中：(1)高- 性能、交互式彩色显示系统和监视器，(2)a 具有网络连接的主机，(3)摄像机，用于 数字化，(4)编辑盒式磁带录像机，用于输入和 输出图像数据，以及(5)适合于 35 mm摄影。此外，调查人员要求 位于校园计算中心的文件服务器计算机， 它将提供海量存储并充当 不同实验室的工作站的以太网络 和图像处理站。 一种非常通用且功能强大的图像处理系统是 需要满足参与者的不同需求 调查人员。显示系统必须能够接受图像 来自临床来源(例如，录像带的眼底图像)、组织学 组织准备(例如放射自显影)和自然场景。它 必须具有良好的空间分辨率才能实现准确定位 并对数字化图像中的特征进行测量。它一定是 还能够快速执行各种转换 数字化的图像。此外，几名调查人员 需要能够生成范围广泛的2维、 静态或时变、单色或彩色刺激 用于心理物理和电生理实验。 所要求的设备适合以下群体的不同需求 参与者非常好，并将加强研究计划 所有涉案人员的名单。

Ten visual scientists request instrumentation for image processing. The requested equipment consists of five major components, located in two adjacent rooms: (1) a high- performance, interactive color display system and monitor, (2) a host computer with network connection, (3) video cameras for digitizing, (4) an editing videocassette recorder for inputing and outputing image data, and (5) a high-resolution monitor suited for 35mm photography. In addition, the investigators are requesting a file server computer, located in the Campus Computation Center, that would provide mass storage and serve as the central node in an Ethernet network of workstations in the various laboratories and the image processing station. An extremely versatile and powerful image processing system is needed to meet the diverse needs of the participating investigators. The display system must be able to accept images from clinical sources (e.g., videotaped fundus images), histological tissue preparations (e.g., autoradiographs), and natural scenes. It must have good spatial resolution to enable accurate localization and measurements on features in the digitized images. It must also be able to perform a variety of transformations rapidly on the digitized images. In addition, several of the investigators require the ability to generate a wide range of 2-dimensional, static or time-varying, monochromatic or chromatic stimuli for use in psychophysical and electrophysiological experiments. The requested equipment suits the diverse needs of the group of participants very well, and would enhance the research programs of everyone involved.
