ImageMagick

ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (over 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and B�zier curves.

The functionality of ImageMagick is typically utilized from the command line or you can use the features from programs written in your favorite programming language. Choose from these interfaces: G2F (Ada), MagickCore (C), MagickWand (C), ChMagick (Ch), ImageMagickObject (COM+), Magick++ (C++), JMagick (Java), L-Magick (Lisp), NMagick (Neko/haXe), MagickNet (.NET), PascalMagick (Pascal), PerlMagick (Perl), MagickWand for PHP (PHP), IMagick (PHP), PythonMagick (Python), RMagick (Ruby), or TclMagick (Tcl/TK). With a language interface, use ImageMagick to modify or create images dynamically and automagically.

Its features include:

Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g. PNG to JPEG).
Transform: resize, rotate, crop, flip or trim an image.
Transparency: render portions of an image invisible.
Draw: add shapes or text to an image.
Decorate: add a border or frame to an image.
Special effects: blur, sharpen, threshold, or tint an image.
Animation: create a GIF animation sequence from a group of images.
Text & comments: insert descriptive or artistic text in an image.
Image identification: describe the format and properties of an image.
Composite: overlap one image over another.
Montage: juxtapose image thumbnails on an image canvas.
Motion picture support: read and write the common image formats used in digital film work.
Image calculator: apply a mathematical expression to an image or image channels.
Discrete Fourier transform: implements the forward and inverse DFT.
High dynamic-range images: accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from the brightest direct sunlight to the deepest darkest shadows.
Encipher or decipher an image: convert ordinary images into unintelligible gibberish and back again.
Virtual pixel support: convenient access to pixels outside the image region.
Large image support: read, process, or write mega-, giga-, or tera-pixel image sizes.
Threads of execution support: ImageMagick is thread safe and most internal algorithms are OpenMP-enabled to take advantage of speed-ups offered by the dual and quad-core processor technologies.
Heterogeneous distributed processing: certain algorithms are OpenCL-enabled to take advantage of speed-ups offered by executing in concert across heterogeneous platforms consisting of CPUs, GPUs, and other processors.

GraphicsMagick

GraphicsMagick is the swiss army knife of image processing. It provides a robust and efficient collection of tools and libraries which support reading, writing, and manipulating an image in over 88 major formats including important formats like DPX, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PNG, PDF, PNM, and TIFF.

Visualization Toolkit

The Visualization Toolkit (VTK) is an open-source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, image processing and visualization. VTK supports a wide variety of visualization algorithms including: scalar, vector, tensor, texture, and volumetric methods; and advanced modeling techniques such as: implicit modeling, polygon reduction, mesh smoothing, cutting, contouring, and Delaunay triangulation.

OpenCV - Open Source Computer Vision

OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision) is a library of programming functions for real time computer vision. The library has more than 500 optimized algorithms. It is used to interactive art, to mine inspection, stitching maps on the web on through advanced robotics.

Spyder

Spyder is a Python development environment with advanced editing, interactive testing, debugging and introspection features. It is especially recommended for scientific computing thanks to NumPy (linear algebra), SciPy (signal and image processing), matplotlib (interactive 2D/3D plotting) and MayaVi’s mlab (interactive 3D visualization) support.

Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit

ITK is an open-source, cross-platform system that provides developers with an extensive suite of software tools for image analysis. Developed through extreme programming methodologies, ITK employs leading-edge algorithms for registering and segmenting multidimensional data.

OpenSceneGraph - 3D graphics toolkit

The OpenSceneGraph is an open source high performance 3D graphics toolkit, used by application developers in fields such as visual simulation, games, virtual reality, scientific visualization and modelling. It is based around the concept of a SceneGraph, providing an object-oriented framework on top of OpenGL. This frees the developer from implementing and optimizing low-level graphics calls and provides many additional utilities for rapid development of graphics applications.
