Digital image processingis the use of
computer algorithms to perform image
processing on digital images
As a subcategory or field of digital signal
processing, digital image processing has many
advantages over analog image processing.
INTRODUCTION
4.
A digital imageis a representation of a two-dimensional image
as a finite set of digital values, called picture elements or pixels
Digitization implies that a digital image is an approximation of a
real scene
WHAT IS DIGITAL IMAGE
1 pixel

WHAT IS DIGITAL
IMAGE(cont…)
Commonimage formats include:
– 1 sample per point (B&W or Grayscale)
– 3 samples per point (Red, Green, and Blue)
– 4 samples per point (Red, Green, Blue, and “Alpha”,
a.k.a. Opacity)
6.
Digital Image Processinginvolves
• Improvement of pictorial information for human
interpretation
• Processing of image data for storage, transmission
and representation for autonomous machine
perception

PROCESSING
7.
• Since thedigital image is “invisible” it must be prepared
for viewing on one or more output device (laser printer,
monitor etc.)
• The digital image can be optimized for the application by
enhancing or altering the appearance of structures within
it (based on: body part, diagnostic task, viewing
preferences etc.)
• It has vast range of applications in fields of Astronomy,
Defense, Research, Forensics etc…

MEDICINE
•Take slice fromMRI scan of canine heart,
and find boundaries between types of
tissue
– Image with gray levels representing tissue
density
– Use a suitable filter to highlight edges

•GeographicInformation Systems
– Digital image processing techniques are used
extensively to manipulate satellite imagery
– Terrain classification
– Meteorology

LAW ENFORCEMENT
•Image processing
techniquesare used
extensively by law
enforcers
– Number plate recognition
for speed
cameras/automated toll
systems
– Fingerprint recognition
– Enhancement of CCTV
images

SECURITY SYSTEMS
It isused for identifying or verifying a person
-In mobile and laptops to unlock them
It is used in security
systems
- fingerprint, eye detection
16.
Digital image processingallows the use of much more
complex algorithms.
Hence it offers both
-more sophisticated performance at simple tasks
-the implementation of methods which would be
impossible by analog means.
