MATLAB makes image processing easy and powerful using the Image Processing Toolbox. You can perform operations like image enhancement, filtering, segmentation, edge detection, object tracking, and more.
Here’s a basic workflow:
Read the image:
Convert to grayscale (if needed):
Apply filtering (e.g., Gaussian blur):
Detect edges (e.g., Canny method):
Segment objects using thresholding or region growing:
Label and count objects:
MATLAB also supports:
Real-time image acquisition (e.g., webcam input)
Image classification using deep learning (CNNs)
Feature extraction (e.g., corners, blobs, textures)
