Digital Image Display

In today's communication-driven society, visual information is of increasing importance. The unprecedented number of available image display devices has highlighted the requirement for image fidelity across different media.

Digital Image Display provides an extensive description of the main algorithms involved in preparing digital images for display and presents practical guidance on the development of new image display applications. By describing the IP algorithms required to adapt an arbitrary image source to an arbitrary display type, this unique reference provides the means to understand and evaluate image delivery formats.

An essential read for technology developers, systems integrators and video graphics interface engineers, Digital Image Display will also appeal to researchers and postgraduate students working in image processing and display.
