Abstract :
Non-intrusive imaging systems have always been of much interest for use in many applications such as process, industrial and medical. Electrical techniques, in particular, are proving to be an inexpensive imaging instrument with low but sufficient resolution capability on imaging the internal distributions processes. Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) is an electrical tomographic method based on the use of inductance measurement for monitoring the distribution of electrically conductive and magnetically permeable material within the sensing area. This paper details the fundamental investigation of the software development for magnetic induction tomography imaging. Research works are concentrated on generating the sensitivity maps needed to reconstruct tomographic images of the electromagnetic distribution. Initial results on the simulative studies have shown acceptable result for using the generated sensitivity map for imaging electrical conductivities.
