Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In most machine vision applications, real-time image processing is essential. For example, an inspection decision of a product on a conveyor belt has to be made before the product proceeds to the next production step. Parameters like the speed of the conveyor belt and the frame rate of the imaging system are important for the design of the used real-time imaging system for the inspection task. Real-time systems can generally be categorised into hard and soft real-time systems. Hard real-time systems fail if the output is not produced within the required time. Soft real-time systems do not fail if the output is not produced within the required time. Instead, the system’s performance decreases. The intent of the “Real-Time 2D/3D Image Processing” Special Issue is to present the latest developments in this field by covering a range of topics that includes the following areas:
- Hardware architectures for real-time image processing
- Real-time image processing algorithms
- Embedded real-time imaging
- Hardware/software co-design for real-time image processing
- Real-time image processing applications
Papers must be original research of novel results or a suitable review article of the current state-of-the-art.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Imaging is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
