Education, Research & Science

With growing industry demand for knowledgeable developers, more academic institutions worldwide are offering image processing and analysis courses as part of their computer science degrees. A comprehensive understanding of modern processing methods as well as exposure to a broad range of applications positions students to immediately contribute to real-world vision-based challenges.  

Pioneering new image-based technologies in science and research demands highly flexible software tools that are capable of addressing a broad spectrum of needs while offering leading-edge performance. A comprehensive and flexible software development kit allows researchers to blaze new trails with fewer pit stops for finding or developing tools they need along the way.

MVTec’s standard software provides a single development platform by offering a complete set of tools from basic filters to unique 3D vision algorithms. The open architecture and rapid development environment of MVTec’s library offers extraordinary flexibility providing students and scientists alike with the ability to experiment with, learn from, and optimize their vision solutions.
