3DTV is regarded by the experts and the general public as the next major step in video technologies. The ghost-like images of remote persons or objects are already depicted in many futuristic movies;both entertainment applications, as well as 3D video telephony, are among the commonly imagined utilizations of such a technology. As in every product, there are various different technological approaches also in 3DTV. By the way, 3D technologies are not new;the earliest 3DTV application is demon-strated within a few years after the invention of 2D TV. However, earlier 3D video relied on stereoscopy. Current work mostly focuses on advanced variants of stereoscopic principles like goggle-free autostereoscopic multi-view devices. However, holographic 3DTV and its variants are the ultimate goal and will yield the envisioned high-quality ghost-like replicas of original scenes once technological problems are solved. Stereoscopy is based on exploiting the human perception. Simply, two views, taken at two slightly different angles are then guided to left and right eyes. The two eyes, receiving the two different views of the same scene from two different angles, provide the visual signals to the brain;and then, the brain interprets the scene as 3D. However, there are many different 3D depth cues in perception, and usually, there are contradictory signals received by the brain. Viewers experience a motion-sickness-like feeling as a consequence of such mismatches. This is the major reason which kept 3D from becoming a popular mode of visual communications. However, recent advances in end-to-end digital techniques minimized such problems. Stereoscopic TV broadcasts have been conducted. Novel advances in stereoscopy brought viewing without goggles;however, the viewer and the monitor must have a fixed location and orientation with respect to each other for most autostereoscopic images. Multi-view autostereoscopic displays allow some horizontal parallax within a limited viewing angle.

One of the problems of a contrast enhancement in practice is the noise boost-up, which limits the applications of the contrast enhancement in consumer products such as digital TV. To resolve this issue, a novel approach for contrast enhancement is presented, which effectively prevents the visual amplification of a noise while the contrast is being enhanced. The proposed algorithm borrows the notion behind the Weber's Law. Compared to typical approach which incorporates noise reduction algorithm before applying contrast enhancement, the proposed algorithm is free from possible blurring in the enhanced results.

The increasing use of infrared sensors requires development of advanced infrared training and simulation tools to meet current Warfighter needs. In order to prepare the force, a challenge exists for training and simulation images to be both realistic and consistent with each other to be effective and avoid negative training. The US Army Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate has corrected this deficiency by developing and implementing infrared image collection methods that meet the needs of both real image trainers and real-time simulations. The author presents innovative methods for collection of high-fidelity digital infrared images and the associated equipment and environmental standards. The collected images are the foundation for US Army, and USMC Recognition of Combat Vehicles (ROC-V) real image combat ID training and also support simulations including the Night Vision image Generator and Synthetic Environment Core. The characteristics, consistency, and quality of these images have contributed to the success of these and other programs. To date, this method has been employed to generate signature sets for over 350 vehicles. The needs of future physics-based simulations will also be met by this data. NVESD's ROC-V image database will support the development of training and simulation capabilities as Warfighter needs evolve.

It is of great significance to digitize ancient paintings and calligraphy. A typical way to acquire them is using a linear CCD based large area table scanner. But this kind of solution has great drawbacks in terms of precision as well as scanning range, which prohibit its use in museums and libraries. Our lab has recently developed a new equipment to solve these drawbacks and hopefully it would shed new light on the documentation of ancient paintings and calligraphy. This paper will discuss a feasible way to improve image sharpness in theory including the theoretical optimal aperture determination, the maximum optical resolution as well as the advantage of using large image sensor. The acquiring experiment shows the method and the scanning hardware can achieve satisfactory results.

Many high end printing systems store and/or transmit compressed images to save bandwidth, memory, and disk space. Prior to printing, the system will decompress and then color correct the image to compensate for the characteristics of a particular printer. In the conventional architecture, the decompression step converts the image from some encoded format (e.g. JPEG with Huffman encoding) into the spatial domain. In this domain, the color image may be stored in some standard device independent color space such as LJG/CCIR YCrCb, SMPTE RGB or Kodak Photo Ycc. The ensuing color correction transforms colors from this space to device coordinates. Our proposed technique uses information about the JPEG compressed format to gain efficiency in the color transformation.

The paper studies the factors influencing the consistent acquisition and recognition of object's color and border features in digital imaging. The proposed image acquisition process is utilized by a computer supported imaging system implementing the acquisition and analysis of skin lesion images supporting medical diagnosis. In addition the same approach may be used for several problems requiring reliable color measurement and object identification. Two methodologies are adopted: The Bayesian Networks, which provide an efficient way of reasoning under uncertainty and are used to incorporate the expert judgement into the estimation of the probability of successful operation, and a Markov chain approach, which is generally used for the dynamic modeling of the system behavior. The Markov chain model requires asymptotically the solution of sparse linear systems. Explicit preconditioned methods are used for the efficient solution of the derived sparse linear system, and the parallel implementation of the dominant computational part is exploited.
