Computational photography is a field of computer science that deals with the use of digital imaging and computer graphics to process and enhance digital images. It involves the use of algorithms to process and improve the quality of digital images. Computational photography has a wide range of applications, including image processing, image analysis, image synthesis, … Read more
A dead pixel is a pixel on a display screen that fails to emit light. Dead pixels are usually a result of a manufacturing defect, although they can also be caused by physical damage to the screen. Depending on the severity of the issue, a dead pixel may be barely noticeable, or it may be … Read more
Head tracking is the process of tracking the movement of a user’s head and using that information to control some aspect of a multimedia or graphics application. For example, head tracking could be used to control the view in a virtual reality application, or to pan and zoom a map or image based on the … Read more
Ray tracing is a technique for generating an image by tracing the path of light through a scene and simulating the effects of its encounters with objects. It is capable of producing a very high degree of visual realism, but at a greater computational cost than other techniques such as rasterization. Ray tracing is often … Read more
Ogg Vorbis is a free, open source audio codec that is used for lossy audio compression. The codec is designed to be efficient and offer a good quality-to-bitrate ratio. The codec is based on the Vorbis audio codec, which is part of the Ogg multimedia container format. What is an Ogg Vorbis file? An Ogg … Read more
In computer graphics, a mipmap (also spelled mip-map) is a low-resolution copy of a texture used to improve performance. Mipmaps are stored in a hardware-specific format that allows the graphics hardware to access them quickly. When a texture is applied to a 3D object, the hardware looks up the mipmap that most closely matches the … Read more
Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is a type of virtual reality that is designed to provide users with a sense of immersion in a virtual environment. IVR technology is used in a variety of applications, including video games, simulations, and training. IVR systems typically use a head-mounted display (HMD) to provide a realistic, three-dimensional (3D) image … Read more
The term “C3D” stands for “computer-aided design in three dimensions.” It is a type of software used by architects, engineers, and other professionals to create three-dimensional models of structures and objects. C3D software is used to create both static and dynamic models, and can be used for both design and analysis purposes. What is C3D … Read more
Motion capture is the process of recording the movement of objects or people. It is often used in filmmaking and video game development to create realistic animations. The recorded data can be used to create three-dimensional (3D) models, which can be used for a variety of purposes, such as character animation, virtual reality, and video … Read more
An image is a digital or analog representation of a visual scene. Images can be captured via a camera, scanner, or other devices, or can be created digitally. Once an image is captured, it can be stored, edited, and displayed on a computer or other device. What is image of a person? The image of … Read more
