ISET (Image Systems Evaluation Tools) is a collection of software modules designed evaluate how image capture components and algorithms influence image quality. Clients use ISET to evaluate and select the imaging sensor that is optimal for their application.
ISET is based on the MATLAB® programming environment and image processing toolbox
The ISET Digital Camera Simulator models the capture and processing of visual scenes by video imaging sensors. ISET includes the the ability to simulate different visual scenes, imaging optics, sensor electronics and image processing pipelines and provides clients with the ability to optimize the parameters of an image-processing pipeline for different imaging conditions and hardware
The ISET Graphical User Interface (see video tours)
The software package includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) through which the user can specify the physical characteristics of a scene including the viewing conditions (e.g. illuminant, viewing distance, etc), and define parameters of the optics, sensor electronics and image processing-pipeline. The package further includes color tools based on international standards (CIE chromaticity coordinates, color matching functions, CIELAB metrics and others) to evaluate the image quality of the processed image
The ISET Scripting Language
Creating ISET scripts, clients can optimize the parameters of an image-processing pipeline for different imaging conditions and hardware.
ISET requires MATLAB® version 6.5 or greater and the MATLAB® image processing toolbox.
