AccuSoft ImageGear Family
High-Performance Imaging Toolkits
The delivery of high-performance imaging has been a hallmark of AccuSoft imaging SDKs for over two decades. We know there is no such thing as fast enough when it comes to image processing.
Our engineers continually work to improve the overall performance of our imaging SDKs. As a result, ImageGear continues to be the ultimate high-speed imaging SDK, and we improve performance with each new version.
Things to Consider
There are many imaging toolkits on the market. However, upon closer inspection, important differences become apparent. Before you buy, consider the following:
-
Ensure your imaging SDK supports the file formats that are important to you, today and in the future — view our supported formats
-
A good toolkit should expect to run into problem images and, in turn, handle them gracefully. There are many poorly created image files out there and most toolkits will stumble — view our Image Guarantee™
-
Test the performance of any toolkit before you commit to it — evaluate performance on the image types you expect to encounter
-
For document imaging applications, the toolkit should support very fast load and display of all Group III/IV images, fast scale-to-gray, auto-deskew, page viewers and sorters, flexible display functions, pan/scroll windows, and other functions specific to document imaging.
Consistent Performance
ImageGear imaging SDKs consistently outperform products from other vendors in all areas. When compared to other imaging SDKs, ImageGear proves to be:
- Up to 20 times faster reading CMYK images
- Up to 4 times faster reading large bitmap images
- Up to 3 times faster reading JPEG check Images
- Up to 2 times faster writing bitmap images
- Up to 2 times faster reading Group III and Huffman TIFFs
- Up to 2 times faster writing Group IV TIFFs
- On average, up to 10 times faster performing basic image processing functions (i.e., rotate, flip, resize, etc.)
Performance Built in
Every function within ImageGear, especially those that include algorithms or processing large amounts of data, is carefully designed and coded for maximum performance. Many functions are coded in assembly language to optimize performance.
We continually test our algorithms and overall performance against all competitors. As a result, with the help of our loyal customer base, we have amassed the largest commercial collection of supported standard, non-standard and troublesome images in the world today.
When we find a process or function that is not the fastest in the pack, we optimize even further. For professional developers, this means your customers will get the fastest results and your applications will have a performance advantage over others.
