The concept of image analysis generally describe the computational solution of tasks with a complexity (in distinciton from simple image processing methods) and referring abilities to the visual system in humans.

Mechanical systems are often used in industrial production processes for automation and quality control. Further applications can be found in transport technologies - from a simple speed trap up to a "seeing vehicle" - and in security systems like access control or automatic identification of hazardous situation. 

At our institute the image analysis rarely appears isolated to our other research fields and therefore is often associated with other areas of our expertise. We also understand the image analysis in context to high-density but und unstructured images of the real world such as those located in point clouds. Besides using existing software, we develop your own algorithms tailored to the specific issue of your project.
