Recent advances in image-processing technologies are meeting the demand for better picture quality, faster data rates and higher accuracy.

Sarah Sookman

For developers of scientific or industrial image-processing applications, robustly and accurately extracting the vital information contained in each pixel presents a constant challenge. Recent developments in camera, frame grabber and algorithm technologies have contributed to raising the standards for picture quality, data rates, processing capabilities, robustness and accuracy. The front of the line At the front end of an application is the camera (or sensor). Typical analog cameras provide 640 x 480-pixel, 8-bit resolution at 25 or 30 fps. Many imaging applications, though, demand...Read full article

    pixel
    A pixel, short for "picture element," is the smallest controllable element of a digital image or display. It is a fundamental unit that represents a single point in a raster image, which is a grid of pixels arranged in rows and columns. Each pixel contains information about the color and brightness of a specific point in the image. Some points about pixels include: Color and intensity: In a colored image, each pixel typically consists of three color channels: red, green, and blue (RGB). The...
