Digital imaging or digital image acquisition is the creation of a digital representation of the visual characteristics of an object, such as a physical scene or the interior structure of an object. The term is often assumed to imply or include the processing , compression , storage , printing and display of such images. A key advantage of a digital image , versus an analog image such as a film photograph , is the ability to digitally propagate copies of the original subject indefinitely without any loss of image quality.

Pixels are what is noticed next, with varying intensities they create and cause different colors, creating a picture or image. Finally, the firmware records the information for a future date and for reproduction. There are several benefits of digital imaging. First, the process enables easy access of photographs and word documents. Google

Great strides have been made in the field of digital imaging. Negatives and exposure are foreign concepts to many, and the first digital image in 1920 led eventually to cheaper equipment, increasingly powerful yet simple software, and the growth of the Internet. The constant advancement and production of physical equipment and hardware related to digital imaging has affected

When Joseph was 28, he was discussing with his brother Claude about the possibility of reproducing images with light. His focus on his new innovations began in 1816. He was in fact more interested in creating an engine for a boat. Joseph and his brother focused on that for quite some time and Claude successfully promoted his innovation moving and advancing him to England. Joseph
1908-467: The most widely used image file format on the Internet . These different scanning ideas were the basis of the first designs of digital camera. Early cameras took a long time to capture an image and were poorly suited for consumer purposes.

2226-504: The sense of their presence to the virtual world. The presence of those images acts as an extension of oneself to others, giving a digital representation of what it is they are doing and who they are with. Digital imaging in the sense of cameras on phones helps facilitate this effect of presence with friends on social media. Alexander (2012) states, "presence and representation is deeply engraved into our reflections on images...this is, of course, an altered presence...nobody confuses an image with
2279-487: The social presence theory especially when referring to the social media aspect of images captured by our phones. There are many different definitions of the social presence theory but two that clearly define what it is would be "the degree to which people are perceived as real" (Gunawardena, 1995), and "the ability to project themselves socially and emotionally as real people" (Garrison, 2000). Digital imaging allows one to manifest their social life through images in order to give

In all classes of digital imaging, the information is converted by image sensors into digital signals that are processed by a computer and made output as a visible-light image. For example, the medium of visible light allows digital photography (including digital videography ) with various kinds of digital cameras (including digital video cameras ). X-rays allow digital X-ray imaging ( digital radiography , fluoroscopy , and CT ), and gamma rays allow digital gamma ray imaging (digital scintigraphy , SPECT , and PET ). Sound allows ultrasonography (such as medical ultrasonography ) and sonar , and radio waves allow radar . Digital imaging lends itself well to image analysis by software , as well as to image editing (including image manipulation). Before digital imaging,

In addition, photographers will be "freed from being 'chained' to the darkroom," will have more time to shoot and will be able to cover assignments more effectively. Digital imaging 'means' that "photographers no longer have to rush their film to the office, so they can stay on location longer while still meeting deadlines". Another advantage to digital photography

The first digital image was produced in 1920, by the Bartlane cable picture transmission system . British inventors, Harry G. Bartholomew and Maynard D. McFarlane, developed this method. The process consisted of "a series of negatives on zinc plates that were exposed for varying lengths of time, thus producing varying densities". The Bartlane cable picture transmission system generated at both its transmitter and its receiver end
