Image processing is a technique to enhance raw images received from cameras/sensors placed on satellites, space probes and aircrafts or pictures taken in normal day-to-day life in various applications. Most image processing techniques involve treating the image as a two-dimensional signal and applying standard signal processing techniques to it. For example, this processing May remove noise. Improve the contrast of the image. Remove blurring caused by movement of the camera during image acquisition.

A few decades ago, image processing was done largely in the analog domain, chiefly by optical devices. Analog image processing refers to the alteration of image through electrical means. These optical methods are still essential to applications such as holography. Due to the significant increase in computer speed, these techniques are increasingly being replaced by digital image processing methods. Digital image processing techniques are generally more versatile, reliable, and accurate.

Image resolution describes the detail an image holds. A resolution of 10 lines per mm means 5 dark lines alternating with 5 light lines, or 5 line pairs per mm. Photographic lens and film resolution are most often quoted in line pairs per mm.

Scaling is defined as the increase or reduction of image size by a fixed ratio.

This is usually done to improve the scale of display for visual interpretation or sometimes to match the scale of one image to other.

Image reduction increases the incidence of high frequencies and causes several pixels to collapse into one.

The image is magnified vertically and reduced horizontally.

Image rotation is performed by computing the inverse transformation for every destination pixel. One of the techniques of rotation is 3-pass shear rotation.

Image enhancement is the improvement of digital image quality, without knowledge about the source of degradation. To make an image lighter or darker, or to increase or decrease contrast, pseudo colouring, noise filtering, sharpening and magnifying. Programs -->image enhancements -->image editors. The aim of image enhancement is to improve the interpretability or perception of information in image. 1. NOISE SMOOTHING. 2. CONTRAST MANIPULATION.

Noise filtering filter the unnecessary information from an image. It is also used to remove various types of noises from the images.

Image restoration removes or minimizes some known degradations in an image. Degradation comes in many forms such as motion blur, noise, and camera miss focus. It is a special kind of image enhancement. A point-spread function, called a filter, can be constructed that undoes the blurring. Inverse filtering

Image reconstruction is a special class of image restoration, where a two- dimensional object is reconstructed from several One-dimensional projections. medical imaging Astronomy radar imaging geological exploration non-destructive testing of assemblies

Image Compression (Image Coding) is the art / science of representing images with the least information. Image compression can be lossy or lossless

Face detection computer technology. Detects facial features and ignores anything else.

Microscope image processing use of digital image processing techniques to process, analyze and present images obtained from a microscope.
It is used to create images of the human body for clinical purposes or medical science.

It is used to depict one person turning into another through some magical or technological means.

Medicine Astronomy Microscopy Seismology Defense Industrial quality control Publication and entertainment industries Digital images are widely available from the Internet, CD-ROMs, and inexpensive charge-coupled-device (CCD) cameras, scanners, and frame grabbers. Software for manipulating images is also widely available

Benefits: Refined images can be obtained, faster report turnaround, easing of growing workload, etc... Improvements:
block artifact. mosquito noise reduction. adaptive contrast enhancement. sharpness and texture enhancement. selective color correction.

By embracing the new image processing technologies and further refinements in image processing techniques, users are likely to find it more beneficial, not less, in future, while more refinements in image processing techniques will be appreciated at a reduced cost
