Image processing plays a key role in vision systems. Its function is to extract and enhance pertinent information from raw data. In robotics, processing of real-time data is constrained by limited resources. Thus, it is important to understand and analyse image processing algorithms for accuracy, speed, and quality. The theme of this thesis is an implementation and comparative study of algorithms related to various image processing techniques like edge detection, corner detection and thinning. A re-interpretation of a standard technique, non-maxima suppression for corner detectors was attempted. In addition, a thinning filter, Hall-Guo, was modified to achieve better results. Generally, real time data is corrupted with noise. This thesis also incorporates few smoothing filters that help in noise reduction. Apart from comparing and analysing algorithms for these techniques, an attempt was made to implement correlation-based optic flow
