Hi YXDragon and Stefan: I am a process engineer in semiconductor industry. I wrote a SEM/STEM/TEM analysis software with UI based on scikit-image, pyqt, and others, using the concept of plugins. I agree with Stefan's point that there is a market for this. However my experience is that the images from scientific instruments like SEM/STEM/TEM/MRI are quite different with images from cameras. And people in semiconductor industry and people working on biology have very different needs. I feel like the focus right now is mostly on the biology community.
I am very happy to hear that we can possibly build a web-based UI for image analysis now. It will integrate the image analysis and further data analysis greatly, which is the our future direction. It would be great if scikit-image could include some demo of it in the future, just like the "viewer" package skimage has right now.
