Vision and Visual System Basics
- Vision involves discovering objects and their locations in the environment.
- Perception is the interpretation and organization of sensory information.
- The retina, part of the brain, converts light patterns into neuronal signals.
Color Vision
- Ability to distinguish objects based on light frequencies reflected or emitted.
- Cone photoreceptors in the eye compare light responses for color differentiation.
- Human visible spectrum ranges from approximately 380 nm to 750 nm.
- Color of objects, such as a red apple, is perceived based on reflected light frequencies.
Computer Vision
- Computer vision is the science of enabling machines to 'see' similar to humans.
- It involves analysis of images and videos, with several sub-domains including:
- Image acquisition and restoration
- Object recognition
- Scene reconstruction
- Event detection and tracking
- Motion analysis and 3D aspects
Related Disciplines
- Intersects with image processing, computer graphics, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and applied mathematics.
Steps in Image Processing
- Image Acquisition: Involves capturing images using various sensors like light-sensitive cameras and tomography devices, producing 2D or 3D data.
- Pre-processing: Prepares images for analysis by ensuring data quality through re-sampling, noise reduction, and contrast enhancement.
- Feature Extraction: Involves identifying relevant image features such as edges, corners, and textures at various complexity levels.
- Detection/Segmentation: Determines key image regions for further analysis, including segmentation of specific objects within images.
Definition of an Image
- An image represents a projection of three-dimensional (3D) objects onto a two-dimensional (2D) surface.
- Formally, an image can be described as a 2D light intensity function denoted as f(x,y).
- In the function f(x,y), x and y represent spatial coordinates on the image, determining its position.
Brightness and Light Intensity
- The value of f at the coordinates (x,y) indicates the brightness of the image at that specific point.
- Light intensity functions play a crucial role in defining how an image is perceived, with varying brightness contributing to the overall representation.
