A TEAM of six research scholars at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-K), headed by project engineer Divya Rathore, has developed a unique software which could be used as image processing learners toolkit. The software was developed under the active guidance of a senior professor in the department of Mathematics at the IIT-K, Dr RKS Rathore.
The software was displayed at the ‘Innovation Hub’ organised at the five-day ‘Infocom-2006’ at Calcutta from December 6 to 10 and was adjudged second best innovative project. It also won the award of excellency. The first award was given to a project on ‘Password Security System’ developed by a student of Amal Jyoti College of Engineering, Kerala.
Giving this information to the media here on Wednesday, Divya Rathore, working as project engineer on ‘MRI Imaging of Human fetus (Brain)’, jointly sponsored by King George Medical University, SGPGI and the IIT-K, said the new software was named ‘Image Apprentice’.
He said that at present the software was being used at the radiology department of SGPGI for solving certain mathematical problems related to MRI scanning. He said that the software was “task specific” and one could make use of it in any manner he liked.
