The MSSM software platform for matching images evolved over the next decade where it was used for a variety of commercial applications including 3D stereo reconstruction, GIS, surgical planning for Maxillo-Facial reconstruction, dental archiving, Data Fusion, MRI image labelling and navigation for

Mowforth's PhD research conceived a Multi-Scale Signal Matching (MSSM) approach to match stereo pairs of images using a Gaussian Pyramid. This approach was then tested using psychophysics to measure the human vergence eye response.
