Image texture is a 2D computer image used in computer graphics to add visual characteristics to an object or area on the screen. It can be manually or procedurally generated, or sampled from a photograph. Texture mapping is used to cover the surface of a polygon. In 3D graphics, it can be wrapped around entire […]
Image compression software reduces image file size with minimal data loss. It’s useful for managing digital data, website management, academia, and archiving. It can be purchased or found as freeware, and some software can handle multiple images and offer editing options. Compression can also be done online through image compression services. Image compression software refers […]
Image editing software comes in two types: vector-based and raster-based. Vector software uses geometry to create sharp images for illustration, while raster software uses pixels for editing photographs. Both types are used by professionals and amateurs, with vector software being more common for commercial illustration. Some projects may require both types of software. There are […]

Image segmentation is a digital method that fragments an image into multiple layers based on pixel similarity. This helps distinguish objects and modify images. There are four methods, including the threshold, edge-based, region-based, and active contour model. Image segmentation is a digital method that creates multiple image layers and fragments from a simple picture or […]
Image resolution is the level of detail in a photo or video. Film and digital cameras, printing, and projecting images require high-quality lenses for optimal resolution. Film reproduces light patterns, resulting in precise resolution, while digital images are made up of pixels. Enlarging an image does not increase its resolution and can reduce image quality. […]
