Description: Rapidly evolving
computer and communications technologies have achieved data transmission rates
and data storage capacities high enough for digital video. But video involves
much more than just pushing bits! Achieving the best possible image quality,
accurate color, and smooth motion requires understanding many aspects of image
acquisition, coding, processing, and display that are outside the usual realm
of computer graphics.
At the same
time, video system designers are facing new demands to interface with film and
computer system that require techniques outside conventional video engineering.
With the help of
hundreds of high quality technical illustrations, this book presents the
following topics:
* Basic concepts
of digitization, sampling, quantization, gamma, and filtering
* Principles of
color science as applied to image capture and display
* Scanning and
coding of SDTV and HDTV
* Video color
coding: luma, chroma (4:2:2 component video, 4fSC composite video)
* Analog NTSC
and PAL
* Studio systems
and interfaces
* Compression
technology, including M-JPEG and MPEG-2
* Broadcast
standards and consumer video equipment
