Reindeer Graphics, Inc. has announced the first major revision to one of its most popular free plug-ins. Adaptive Equalization, which can greatly enhance local contrast in images, has been updated to include a larger preview and an improved blending function.
Adaptive Equalization is one of many state-of-the-art image processing algorithms that can be found in Fovea Pro, the company's suite of tools for quantitative image analysis, and The Image Processing Tool Kit, its educational package for image processing and analysis.
The revised Adaptive Equalization plug-in, as well as several other free plug-ins, can be downloaded from Reindeer Graphics' free plug-ins page. The plug-in is compatible with Photoshop 5.5, 6, 7, and CS on Mac OS 9, Mac OS X (10.2 or higher) and Windows 98 or better. Adaptive Equalization comes with a PDF manual that explains its usage and the underlying algorithm before giving examples of the plug-in in action.
Reindeer Graphics, Inc. is the leading provider of custom image processing and quantitative image analysis solutions. Their flagship package, Fovea Pro, turns Adobe Photoshop into a world-class quantitative image analysis tool. (First posted on Wednesday, May 26, 2004 at 15:52 EDT)
