The dual-layer structure used up to now has been augmented with an additional layer where image data can be recorded to create a new triple-layer structure.

The powerful processor can output image data in 14-bit RAW format, giving advanced users total freedom to express their creative vision throughout the shooting and post-production processes.
With a top sensitivity of ISO 12800 and approximately 12.0 effective megapixels, it boasts remarkable high-sensitivity, low-noise capabilities and assures high-speed image data readout to deliver high-resolution images.
Image Data insists that the database, which would allow retailers or police across the country instantly to match a name and photograph, is primarily designed to fight cheque and credit-card fraud.
In February an outcry greeted news that Image Data, a small New Hampshire firm, had received finance and technical assistance from the American Secret Service to build a national database of photographs used on drivers' licences.
The current 3D camera module developed by Sharp incorporates functions to process the image data output by the left and right cameras, including Color Synchronizing Processing to adjust color and brightness, Timing Synchronizing Processing to synchronize the timing of the video signals, and Optical Axis Control Processing to correct positioning.

After studying the large set of image-data, the cluster revealed that indeed it could, in addition to being able to develop concepts for human body parts and -- of course -- cats.

But just as a photograph has more detail if there are more pixels per square of image, the data about what's underground should be more detailed.
At that point, the rig calculates where light entered the polymer by measuring how much it has diminished during its travel time, and then composes an image from that data.
The difference is between actively sharing information -- uploading an image with location data, checking into a restaurant or other business -- and passively sharing it (what the tech companies like to call "frictionless" sharing).
Sonar scans done at a safe distance of 10 metres create a rough image known as a data-point cloud.
The firm says ASTC is a "revolutionary" new algorithm - or set of instructions - that will allow software designers to use the same amount of data to describe more image detail than had been possible before, or to use less data to provide the same amount of detail.
Others are awaiting discovery, driven by needed improvements to seismic data quality to image the prospects.

For example: Every data file or image is time-stamped, with a certain amount of metadata with each file.
The company provides data storage and image capturing from aircraft, satellites and submarines for intelligence gathering and defense purposes.
In addition, Fast Readout Technology rapidly transfers video data from the image sensor, enabling 3D images to be captured in high-resolution HD mode.

Studies looking into the formation of the image have been based on macroscopic data.
It's this oversampling that reduces artifacts and noise in images and while Nokia's got some secret algorithms at work, there's enough data left within these image files to unlock those darkened corners.

They include products and devices such as Bluetooth headsets used with cell phones, handheld metal detectors used by airport security, iPods, iPhones, electric blankets and pills that are swallowed and used to image internal organs by transmitting wireless data.
When the image is processed in SIGMA Photo Pro, it will preserve the balance of the natural data for the best photos with the best image quality.

This could open up more possibilities, from concert ticket-buying apps based on a musician in an image, to a TripAdvisor-like travel review or Orbitz-like travel-booking app that pops up data related to the travel destination in the image.

An algorithm then crunches the data to reconstruct the hidden image.
This 6-megapixel data stream oversamples the target image by 3x resulting in video as sharp as that of the high-end multi-sensor video cameras used in television studios.

The image used here required a huge amount of data processing, which was performed by Ignacio Toledo at the ALMA OSF.

Digital systems, which process pixels one at a time, have to translate the two-dimensional image into a one-dimensional stream of data.
The focus of the hardware is to significantly speed up data processing for large, data crunching operations like compression, image recognition, and search functions.
The volcano data have been merged with an image of Olympus Mons taken by the Viking Orbiter spacecraft of the 1970s and vertically exaggerated by a factor of 10.
The SIGMA DP3 Merrill features a RAW data recording mode for retaining full image capture detail of the utmost quality captured through the direct image sensor, plus a JPEG recording format for convenience.

Even with a bit of data scrunching you can confidently expect an image file to be around 500KB.
