    1 Bilder bearbeiten Im Internet finden Sie viele gute Tutorials für die Bildbearbeitung mit Photoshop oder Lightroom, aber mittlerweile sind viele Anwender auf der Suche nach Alternativen. In diesem Skript gehe ich deshalb einen etwas anderen Weg und zeige Ihnen die Gemeinsamkeiten aber auch die Unterschiede unterschiedlicher Software-Produkte. Diese Veröffentlichung wurde nicht von Software-Herstellern gesponsert. Ich habe die Programme nach freiem Ermessen ausgewählt und die kostenlosen Testversionen 30 Tage lang parallel genutzt. Mein Fazit: Im Amateurbereich kann man wunderbar ohne Adobe-Produkte auskommen. Zunächst erhalten Sie einen kurzen Überblick über die grundlegenden Bearbeitungskonzepte. Bei den Anleitungen für die wichtigsten Bearbeitungsschritte verwende ich ganz bewusst Screenshots aus verschiedenen Programmen. Es mag anfangs verwirrend erscheinen, wenn Sie nicht jeden Schritt sofort 1:1 nachmachen können, aber Ihr Verständnis für das Prinzip der Bildbearbeitung wird sich schärfen. Dadurch wird ein Wechsel zu einem anderen Software-Anbieter einfacher. Wenn Sie meine Arbeit unterstützen wollen, freue ich mich über eine Spende auf meinen Paypal-Account. Für Lob oder Kritik erreichen Sie mich per Mail: . Und nun viel Spaß beim Lesen! 1 © Jacqueline Esen | www.fotonanny.de Inhalt 1 Bilder bearbeiten 1 1.1 Welche Software ist die richtige für mich? 3 1.1.1 Unterschiedliche Behandlung von RAW und JPEG 4 1.1.2 Das Konzept von Lightroom und Darktable 6 1.1.3 Klassische Bildbearbeitungsprogramme 10 1.1.4 Das Grundprinzip der Bildbearbeitung

Received: 9 September 2019; Accepted: 29 October 2019; Published: 1 November 2019 Abstract: One of the significant qualities of the human vision, which differentiates it from computer vision, is so called attentional control, which is the innate ability of our human eyes to select what visual stimuli to pay attention to at any moment in time. In this sense, the visual salience detection model, which is designed to simulate how the human visual system (HVS) perceives objects and scenes, is widely used for performing multiple vision tasks. This model is also in high demand in the tone mapping technology of high dynamic range images (HDRIs). Another distinct quality of the HVS is that our eyes blink and adjust brightness when objects are in their sight. Likewise, HDR imaging is a technology applied to a camera that takes pictures of an object several times by repeatedly opening and closing a camera iris, which is referred to as multiple exposures.

  • Metrology Studies and Baseplate-Pixel Sensor Gluing of the Pixel Strip Modules for the CMS II Phase Upgrade
    Metrology Studies and Baseplate-Pixel Sensor Gluing of the Pixel Strip Modules for the CMS II Phase Upgrade Supervisors: Author: James Keaveney Jem Aizen M. Guhit Marino Missiroli Abstract The upcoming High-Luminosity (HL) upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has set in motion the Central Muon Solenoid (CMS) Phase II Upgrade on its silicon tracker. To withstand the problems the current tracker cannot solve, such as the increase in data rates, pile up, and radiation damage, a new module with two silicon sensors closely spaced in a sandwhich configuration is capable of discriminating between high and low transverse momentum. This configuration allows the tracker to provide information in the first level trigger decision. In order to prolong the lifetime of the modules during operation, an efficient cooling system has to be embedded within the components. This report outlines the advances and improvement made on the gluing techniques between the baseplate and pixel sensor of the pixel strip (PS) modules. The techniques were tested and produced promising results. Also, another important studies made was on the alignment of the silicon sensors. Methods on Metrology were developed using the capabilities of the newly commissioned microscope in the Detector Assembly Facility (DAF) at DESY. A relative angular tilt was found between the XY Stage and the microscope, which was then analytically calculated and was used as a correction to the measured values. These measurements were compared to the previous SmartScope Data. Table of Contents 1 Introduction 3 1.1 The Large Hadron Collider . 3 1.2 HL - LHC . 3 1.3 CMS Experiment .
