I recently registered as a developer with CATS. I use the Amiga to develop image processing and matching software, mainly for automatic fingerprint recognition. At the moment I have a very ad hoc collection of program harnesses used for developing compression algorithms. I want to rationalise these, at the moment I use my own chunky pixel (1 byte/pixel, 255 level) image format. Are there any IFF standards for chunky pixel as opposed to bitplane images in the works? Another question, is anyone working on a JPEG compression algorithm implementation for the Amiga? Any and all comments welcomed. Kevin
