Perhaps the most important influences on my early thinking about this topic came from Paweł Frelik and Larry McCaffery, with whom I shared a rousing desert hike in the foothills of Borrego Springs. After an evening of food, drink, and lively exchange, I had the long-overdue epiphany to channel my training in musical performance more directly into my academic pursuits. The early support, friendship, and collegiality of these two had a tremendously positive effect on the arc of my scholarship; knowing they believed in the project helped me pencil its first sketchy contours—and ultimately see it through to the end.

    Digital video in multimedia pdf Continue Digital Electronic Representation of Moving Visual Images This article is about the digital methods applied to video. The standard digital video storage format can be viewed on DV. For other purposes, see Digital Video (disambiguation). Digital video is an electronic representation of moving visual images (video) in the form of coded digital data. This contrasts with analog video, which is a moving visual image with analog signals. Digital video includes a series of digital images displayed in quick succession. Digital video was first commercially introduced in 1986 in Sony D1 format, which recorded a non-repressive standard digital video definition component. In addition to uncompressed formats, today's popular compressed digital video formats include H.264 and MPEG-4. Modern interconnect standards for digital video include HDMI, DisplayPort, Digital Visual Interface (DVI) and Serial Digital Interface (SDI). Digital video can be copied without compromising quality. In contrast, when analog sources are copied, they experience loss of generation. Digital video can be stored in digital media, such as Blu-ray Disc, in computer data storage, or transmitted over the Internet to end users who watch content on a desktop or digital smart TV screen. In everyday practice, digital video content, such as TV shows and movies, also includes a digital audio soundtrack. History Digital Video Cameras Additional Information: Digital Cinematography, Image Sensor, and Video Camera Base for Digital Video Cameras are metallic oxide-semiconductor (MOS) image sensors. The first practical semiconductor image sensor was a charging device (CCD) invented in 1969 using MOS capacitor technology.

    About this Guide This guide is designed to prepare you to deploy to culturally complex environments and achieve mission objectives. The ECFG fundamental information contained within will help you understand the cultural dimension of your assigned location and gain skills necessary for success (Photo: Saudi soldiers perform a traditional dance). Kingdomof Saudi Arabia The guide consists of two parts: Part 1 “Culture General” provides the foundational knowledge you need to operate effectively in any global environment with a focus on the Arab Gulf States. NOTE: While the term Persian Gulf is common in the US, this guide uses the name preferred in the region, the Arabian Gulf. Part 2 “Culture Specific” describes unique cultural features of Saudi society. It applies culture-general concepts to help increase your knowledge of your assigned deployment location. This section is designed to complement other pre- deployment training (Photo: US soldiers dine on a traditional Saudi meal of lamb and rice).

  • Watermarked Image Compression and Transmission Through Digital Communication System
    International Journal of Electronics, Communication & Instrumentation Engineering Research and Development (IJECIERD) ISSN 2249-684X Vol. 3, Issue 1, Mar 2013, 97-104 © TJPRC Pvt. Ltd. WATERMARKED IMAGE COMPRESSION AND TRANSMISSION THROUGH DIGITAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM M. VENU GOPALA RAO 1, N. NAGA SWETHA 2, B. KARTHIK 3, D. JAGADEESH PRASAD 4 & K. ABHILASH 5 1Professor, Department of ECE, K L University, Vaddeswaram, Andhra Pradesh, India 2,3,4,5 Student, Department of ECE, K L University, Vaddeswaram, Andhra Pradesh, India ABSTRACT This paper presents a process able to mark digital images with an invisible and undetectable secrete information, called the watermark, followed by compression of the watermarked image and transmitting through a digital communication system. This process can be the basis of a complete copyright protection system. Digital water marking is a feasible method for the protection of ownership rights of digital media such as audio, image, video and other data types. The application includes digital signatures, fingerprinting, broadcast and publication monitoring, copy control, authentication, and secret communication. For the efficient transmission of an image across a channel, source coding in the form of image compression at the transmitter side & the image recovery at the receiver side are the integral process involved in any digital communication system. Other processes like channel encoding, signal modulation at the transmitter side & their corresponding inverse processes at the receiver side along with the channel equalization help greatly in minimizing the bit error rate due to the effect of noise & bandwidth limitations (or the channel capacity) of the channel. The results shows that the effectiveness of the proposed system for retrieving the secret data without any distortion.
