With the Image Acquisition Toolbox, it is now possible to stream live video into MATLAB, using devices ranging such as a web cam, FireWire video camera, or analog camera hooked up to a framegrabber....read more >>

OK, I'm breaking the number one rule that Doug and I set up for our submissions - I'm picking my own file. Hey, it's my forum, so I guess I can do what I want! I have been using a couple of...read more >>

人们一直在成熟的应用程序in MATLAB for quite a while, and that is becoming even easier because the MATLAB compiler now works for the entire MATLAB language. A big...read more >>

Sliceomatic was an early pick here at pick of the week. Here is another tool, Orthogonalslicer, that does a similar job, but in a different way. This tool lets you look at the slices orthogonally...read more >>

This week's pick by Michael Kleder uses Java to determine if a number is prime. I liked this because it quietly makes use of Java. I rarely get a chance to program in Java, so when I saw this I...read more >>

This is a great animated clock made in MATLAB, and I chose it for several reasons: 1) Tim made use of some new R14 language features like nested functions; this makes argument passing easier to do...read more >>

At a MathWorks conference Doug and I attended last week, there was a lot of talk about SAVEPPT - Mark Brown's submission that automatically creates PowerPoint documents from MATLAB figures and...read more >>

I just became a huge fan of Tobin Driscoll, for his submission of UNPLOT to MATLAB Central. And I swear it has nothing to do with the fact that he goes to the University of Delaware, where I did my...read more >>

This weeks pick adds very useful functionality for anybody who works with filled contour plots (as created by contourf). MATLAB's standard colorbar isn't particularly well suited to filled contours,...read more >>

3D displays of data can look very flat, which is why light sources are often added. Gordon has a different method for enhancing a 3D display and the results are impressive. MATLAB has many built in...read more >>
