Based on image and graphic technologies and synthesized preceding research achievements in the digital processing of photoelastic image, a vectorization system for interactive photoelastic image processing has been set up. The system consists of seven modules, and a toolbox. This paper describes the system structure, new techniques used in the system, and its features. By use of this system, the vectorized image files of the skeleton for stress analysis can be obtained. The application area of the system is wide, and it has quite strong interactive processing capability and user-friendly interface.
