Tria Image
Processing Demonstration
Below you will find a
link to download the Tria Demonstration program.
The program is fully functional with the exception of "Save"
functions. This will allow you to test drive the program on
example
images and your own images. (As
an anti-piracy measure, the grid function has been locked on.
This does not affect the image data.)
Blind deconvolution
is "blind" because you are missing crucial information about what
created the image.
Success depends on your knowledge of the imaging system and a certain
amount of
trial and error. With you as the potential purchaser, there are
two
scenarios we would like to avoid:
- Your first attempt does not yield
satisfactory results, and you are thus discouraged about the process.
- You purchase Tria, and it turns out that
your images may contain too much blur, or too much noise, to be
significantly improved.
To avoid these
situations, use the Tria Demo to
- practice on the included examples,
- take the time and read through the help
file, and
- apply the Blind Deconvolution methods to
your specific images.
You can also use the
images on this website for practice. However, keep in mind that
these images may have been reduced in size and compression.
With
apologies to Apple and Linux users, Tria currently runs on
Windows
(2000, XP, and Vista) machines only.
The
program is robust, and includes examples and an extensive help file. I
recommend using a machine with 1 GB of RAM, and as much speed as you
can
afford. Image processing in any form is computationally intensive.
Download
the latest version of Tria by clicking:
Download
Tria Demo Version 2.2
After download,
unzip the file and run the TriaSetup/Release/TriaSetup.msi program.
This package includes the executable, and the
help file. Also download the Tria ImagePack, which contains
the example images and a starter set of SeDDaRA reference images.
Unzip the ImagePack in the Tria Application folder after installation.
Special
Note: We
noticed a recent web posting that stated the user had some
difficulty running this program. The demo has been downloaded
over 500 times with few reported problems. However, this specific problem was not reported to us,
and we could not determine the nature of the problem. If the
suggestions
below do not resolve any difficulties you may experience, let us know. We abhor inoperable
software as much as you do, and will work with you to resolve it, even
with the demo program.
Known
Software Issues
- For XP installation,
an error can occur concerning the driver "MSVBVM60.dll". A user fixed
this problem by upgrading the XP operating system to Service Pack 2.
- For XP installation,
if you are asked to replace a newer ".dll" file with an older one, keep
the newer file. Tria should work with the newer file, and if it
doesn't, then the only program affected is Tria.
- Some Tria functions
only operate on certain types of images. For example, the SeDDaRA
and Caron dialog boxes will not display the names of 24-bit RGB
images. This is intentional since SeDDaRA and Caron are currently
configured to work with only grayscale images.
- Tria uses the
Microsoft software for opening up jpeg images. Even though some
jpegs are in 8-bit format, they are opened as 24-bit color images.
- Tria may have some
difficulties processing larger images (greater than 2048 pixels per
side). This is a memory problem. You may want to add more
RAM to your computer, or reduce the image size. We have verified
that Tria can process a 4096X4096 image on a PC with 2 GBytes of RAM.
- Area of Influence
produces an error when the AoI size is larger than the image. The
error is valid, but the user should be warned.
- The demo version
permits creating reference images, but not saving them.
Thank
you for your interest in Tria Image Processing.
