A web laboratory using MATLAB Builder NE for computer image processing

Many various instruments are needed for computer image processing. These instruments are used for image restoration, analysis, etc. This paper presents a novel web laboratory based on MATLAB Builder NE with Web Figure, called ImageWeb, to facilitate computer image processing without needed technical information for users. The developed ImageWeb provides fundamental principles of image processing, including basic, compression, edge detection, filtering, optimization, and histogram processes, and so on. In addition, the usage of MATLAB Builder NE with MATLAB Web Figure provides high flexibility with visualization means such as zoom, rotate, and 3-dimensional view. Users can easily access ImageWeb using only a web browser, without requiring any special programs over the Internet and without time and location restraints.
