    During the last 10 years, TASC has undertaken several digital image enhancement projects based on nondestructive evaluation (NDE) applications. Most of these projects involved analyzing NDE imagery to determine why a critical part failed to operate as expected, or trying to recover from a failure which degraded NDE imagery or made it difficult to obtain. Examples include our studies of the Inertial Upper Stage nozzle nosecap following the unsuccessful launch of a Tracking Data Relay Satellite in the summer of 1983 [1] and our development of a video data image processing system to enhance, in real time, unevenly lit, poor-contrast signals from within the contaminated Number 2 reactor vessel at Three Mile Island [2]
