NIH Image is a freely available image processing and analysis software designed for Macintosh users.
Are you a Mac user looking for a comprehensive image processing and analysis program? Look no further than NIH Image. This public domain software has everything you need to acquire, display, edit, enhance, analyze, and even animate your images.
NIH Image is compatible with a wide variety of other applications, allowing you to easily import and export TIFF, PICT, PICS, and MacPaint files. It also supports standard image processing functions like contrast enhancement, density profiling, smoothing, sharpening, edge detection, median filtering, and spatial convolution with user-defined kernels.
But that's not all - NIH Image also includes tools for measuring area, mean, centroid, perimeter, and more. Its automated particle analysis feature makes it easier than ever to analyze your images, and spatial calibration ensures accurate real-world area and length measurements. Plus, density calibration can be done against radiation or optical density standards using user-specified units.
With NIH Image, you can easily edit color and grayscale images with a tool palette that includes the ability to draw lines, rectangles, and text. You can flip, rotate, invert, and scale selections, and the software supports multiple windows and 8 levels of magnification. Best of all, all editing, filtering, and measurement functions are undoable, so you can experiment without fear of losing your work.
NIH Image also includes support for Data Translation and Scion frame grabber cards, allowing you to capture images or movie sequences using a TV camera. Other frame grabbers are supported via plug-in modules, and the software can even be customized using a built-in Pascal-like macro language or externally compiled plug-in modules. For advanced users, the software's source code can even be accessed on the Pascal level.
Overall, NIH Image is a powerful and versatile image processing and analysis program that is sure to meet all of your needs.
