Abstract:
This work is related to a project of medical robotics applied to surgical endoscopy, led in collaboration with Doctor Berreni from the Saint Roch nursing-home in Perpignan (France). After taking what Doctor Berreni advises, two aspects of endoscopic color image processing have been brought out:
   - The help to the diagnosis by the automatic detection of the sick areas after a learning phase.
   - The 3D reconstruction of the analyzed cavity by using a zoom.
