An
exploration of the fundamentals of imaging science and the imaging
systems of the past, present and future. Imaging systems studied
include the
human visual system, consumer and entertainment applications (e.g.,
traditional
and digital photography, television, digital television and HDTV,
virtual
reality); medical applications (e.g., X-ray, ultrasound, MRI);
business/document applications (e.g., impact and non-impact printing,
scanners,
printers, fax machines, copiers) and systems used in remote sensing and
astronomy (e.g., night-vision systems, ground- and satellite-based
observatories). The laboratory component includes experiments related
to the
principles and theories discussed in the corresponding lecture.
Laboratory
experiments give students experience with many imaging systems and
exposure to
the underlying scientific principles. (Competency in algebra) Class 3,
