Extract

MacLispix, a public domain image processing system for the Macintosh, has been applied to a variety of image processing problems such as analysis of diffraction spots, uniform display of x-ray maps, determination of fractal dimension of particle outlines, and analysis of data cubes. Due to interest from the PC community, we have ported the software to Windows, renamed it Lispix', and distributed it for both platforms, along with example images, source and documentation.

Lispix reads TIFF files and raw files (no image header), both with pixel types of signed and unsigned 8, 16 and 32 bit integers, 4 and 8 byte IEEE standard floating point numbers, and 3x8 bit RGB color. Lispix has a variety of standard image processing operations, such as thresholding, edge finding (gradient), filtering, scaling, Linear Hough Transform, false coloring, RGB color overlays and particle measurement.
