We present the educational software package ProDIM, created with the idea of supporting courses on digital image processing techniques. This package was implemented in Visual Basic, which is a visual programming language to create applications in a Windows environment. Operations available in ProDIM include manipulation in the space and frequency domains, such as 2‐D convolution, gray‐level transformations, linear filtering, histogram equalization, and morphologic filtering. Examples show how the package can be useful as a lecture aid and as a lab assistance tool. The image to be processed can be generated using the editor included, or can be imported using images in a BMP format. A graphical interface allows the user to activate available operations through a menu selection.
