Overview of Image Processing
• Pixel is the term used most widely to denote the elements of a digital
image.
The fundamental steps in digital image processing are:
• Image acquisition: the image acquisition stage involves preprocessing,
such as scaling

1. Bitmap images are formed from a matrix of pixels with different colors.
These images have large file sizes that are determined by the image’s
dimensions in pixels and color depth. To reduce this problem, some
graphic formats such as GIF and JPEG store the images in compressed
format.
2. Vector graphics are really just a set of graphical objects such as lines,
rectangles, ellipses, arcs, or curves, called primitives in the image. Draw
programs, also called vector graphics programs, are a format widely used
by computer-aided programs to create detailed engineering and design
drawings, and have become popular in multimedia for 3D animation.
Some of the image file formats are:
BMP (Bitmap)
• You can crop an image using the Crop Tool and the Crop
command.
• You can also trim pixels using the Crop And Straighten
and the Trim commands.
Resizing
• There will be times when you need to make an object bigger or smaller as
you copy it from one picture to another.
Correcting
• Adjusting proper intensity, contrast range, and color balance is very easy
using image processing programs. Suppose, we want the color adjustment.
Sharpening/Softening
• a scanned image is not as sharp as you might wish. Sometimes you may
get very sharp image. So, you may require sharpening/softening of the
image.
