Dat-inf Image Overlay

Introduction

Image Overlay is used to precisely overlay two images. With adjustable transparency, you can quickly and clearly identify differences in otherwise similar scenes. The automatic overlay function aligns images in moments, and an intelligent difference feature helps you systematically search for deviations.

Use cases

Image overlays with Image Overlay are ideal for finding differences in digital images or demonstrating matches – for example in before/after comparisons, follow-up checks, or quality inspection.

Image Overlay was originally developed for medical applications, especially to document changes over time. Wherever no specialized software is available and differences or changes need to be visualized clearly, Image Overlay can be an efficient solution.

Features

  • Simple image comparison via overlay technique
  • Before/after visualization using controllable transparency
  • Positioning assistant (supports rotation, translation, and scaling)
  • Fully automatic overlay using modern computer-vision algorithms
  • Make deviations visible by computing the difference between images
  • Flexible adaptation to nearly any image size
  • Zoom for base and overlay images
  • Supports many image formats (BMP, JPEG, PNG, TIF, etc.)
