Abstract: Aberrations on a surface, such as shots on a target, are identified through image processing techniques using color subtraction. An image of the surface is first initialized by shrinking the image and identifying pixel colors. A quantization algorithm is used to identify K number of colors, and acceptable variations for those colors are identified, and then stored in a color palette. Future images are analyzed by subtracting colors that match colors in the color palette. Remaining colors are aged in, and then compared with previously identified aberrations (shots). Image processing techniques then verify the potential aberrations. Data concerning verified aberrations are then displayed on remote user interfaces.
