| ARTICLES RELATED TO Imaging | | | |  Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Image processing - Solution MethodsA few decades ago, image processing was done largely in the analog domain, chiefly by optical devices. These optical methods are still essential to applications such as holography because they are inherently parallel; however, 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; they have the additional benefit of being easier to implement than their analog counte ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - ROM image - Usage of ROMs
ROM image - Changing Meaning.
ROM chips, while still in use, have been replaced in many instances by optical media such as CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs, magnetic media such as hard disks and magnetic tapes and, more recently, Flash Memory chips. However, the term ROM has grown to encompass many of these newer media so, for instance, a computer game copied from a magnetic tape may also be referred to as a ROM. Images copied from optical media are also called ISO images, after the standard file system for optical media, ISO 9660.

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Body image - Attractiveness and Social Issues Some researchers also found that men judge the female figure they found most attractive as heavier than women's ratings of the ideal body shape. In contrast, that most women, including overweight women, desire men with a very low percentage of body fat, whether they be thin or muscular. This suggests that, contrary to the media focus, men are far more likely to be attracted to larger woman than women are to be attracted to larger men.
Additionally, men are also more likely to be unsatisfied with their height, due to a perceived prefer ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Body image - Relationship to Psychological Disorders Poor body images can often contribute to the onset of a variety of eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. Other possible effects of the cultural obsession with looking slender include excessive exercising, fad diets, and lawsuits involving fast food chains.
Concerns with body image have been linked to a decrease in self esteem and an increase in dieting among young women. This latter trend has been identified as an indicator of the onset of eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimi ...

| | | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - ROM image - Internet Distribution of ROMs The trading of ROMs over the internet is extremely widespread. Many methods are used for such distribution, including:
http (normal web sites) and FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
BitTorrent
Direct Connect hubs
eMule
IRC DCC
Usenet binaries
Although the large size of newer games makes the distribution of more than one game at a time impractical, it is often the case for older games that many thousands of games may be distributed together as a collection. For example, the entire Good2600 set of 2,687 Atari 2600 games could be do ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Image intensifier - Generation 1 Generation 1 devices are also called "Starlight scopes", and were a tremendous improvement upon generation 0. They are much more power efficient, amplify light better, and produced a superior image. These devices were initially used in the Vietnam War, but were unable to function well without moonlight until heavy and bulky 3-stage tubes were deployed. Generation 1 also used a different photocathode, S-20, which provided about ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Particle image velocimetry - Technique Typical PIV apparatus consists of a camera (normally a digital camera in modern systems), a high power laser, for example a double-pulsed Nd-YAG laser laser or a copper vapour laser, an optical arrangement to convert the laser output light to a light sheet (normally using a cylindrical lens), and the fluid/gas under investigation. A fibre optic cable often connects the laser to the cylindrical lens setup. The laser acts as a photographic flash for the digital camera, and the particles in the fluid scatter the light. It ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Particle image velocimetry - Applications PIV has wide ranging applications in many fields of fluid dynamics, varying from studying the flow over an aircraft wing in a wind tunnel model to vortex formation through prosthetic heart valves on a microscopic scale.
The range of complexity of instrumentation opens use of the technique to both simple systems running on a PC through to dedicated labs running expensive, highly sensitive equipment.
Rudimentary PIV algorithms may be built in a matter of hours using readily available functions in many programming languages, for e ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Magnetic resonance imaging - Application In clinical practice, MRI is used to distinguish pathologic tissue (such as a brain tumor) from normal tissue. One of the advantages of an MRI scan is that, according to current medical knowledge, it is harmless to the patient. It utilizes strong magnetic fields and non-ionizing radiation in the radio frequency range. Compare this to CT scans and traditional X-rays which involve doses of ionizing radiation and may increase the chance of malignanc ...

| | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Image intensifier - Generation 0 The first application for night vision was for snipers in World War II. Nicknamed the "sniperscope" and "snooperscope", they were designated the M1 and M3 infrared night sighting devices. They are simple devices that do not produce a net amplification of light, but rather allow a user to see near-infrared light. Along with beam filters, this allowed snipers to illuminate their target without their target being aware of it. However, night vision became employed by both sides, and as a result the "activ ...

| | | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - Digital image editing - Digital data compression Many image file formats use data compression to reduce file size and save storage space. Digital compression of images may take place in the camera, or can be done in the computer with the image editor. When images are stored in JPEG format, compression has already taken place. Both cameras and computer programs allow the user to set the level of compression.
Some compression algorithms are lossless, such as PNG, which means no image quality is lost when the file is saved. The JPEG compression algorithm uses a lossy format. The greate ...

| | | | | | | | Imaging: Encyclopedia II - ROM image - Hacks & Fan Translations Once games have been made available in ROM format, it is often trivial for users to make modifications to the games. This may take the form of modifying graphics, changing the levels or even translating the game into a language in which it was not originally made available.
Hacks can often take the form of humorous modifications to games, as is the case with a hack of the NES version of Mario Brothers, entitled “Afro Mario Brothers” ...
