Image processing from MATLAB to C

Hi everyone, I have been working in developing OCR for Arabic letters using MATLAB. But, I need to convert my codes to C. Functions Supported for Code Generation in MATLAB are very limited (2 to be accurate). So, can any one guide me to any useful readings to help to transfer my codes to C? or how would I develop from scratch processing functions in C?

Thanx,,

If you are going to start writing the code from scratch. I would consider openCV in the area of computer vision:

openCV

However, have you considered the Computer Vision System Toolbox? That would greatly increase the number of functions/objects supported for code generation and you would likely find a lot of functionality close to your application.

Thanx Wayne for reply. My goal is to get better performance as I faced many problems with MATLAB processing large images. So, will openCV be realiable? or C will be better? About the Computer Vision System Toolbox, it doesn't conver my functions (grayscale,rgb2gray,...).

openCV is definitely worth looking into if you are going to be doing computer vision.

I took a quick search http://opencv.org/. It sounds promising as it has been built on optimized C/C++ . Thanx alot again :).
