Digital Photographic Capture

Focal Press, 2005

The major function of photography is to capture a picture from what is in front of you. Whether a picture of the family pet or advertising spread, the acquisition of the scene is the first step in the digital image process. Digital Photographic Capture takes that first step and it breaks it down in detail so you can understand and better manipulate...

The Light Fantastic: A Modern Introduction to Classical and Quantum Optics

Oxford University Press, 2008

"Provides a nice mix of elementary physical optics with practical and exciting applications."--Stephen Barnett, University of Strathclyde

Computational Photography: Methods and Applications (Digital Imaging and Computer Vision)

CRC Press, 2010

Computational photography is a new and rapidly developing research field. It has evolved from computer vision, image processing, computer graphics, and applied optics, and refers broadly to computational imaging techniques that enhance or extend the capabilities of digital photography. The output of these techniques is an image...

Phakic Intraocular Lenses: Principles and Practice

Slack Incorporated, 2003

Phakic intraocular lenses are innovative devices that provide the ability to correct extreme levels of myopia, nearsightedness, and astigmatism that other modalities have been unsuccessful correcting.

As these devices are increasingly gaining popularity internationally, it has become equally important for a reference to...

Statistical Optics

John Wiley & Sons, 1985

Since the early 1960s it has gradually become accepted that a modern academic training in optics should include a heavy exposure to the concepts of Fourier analysis and linear systems theory. This book is based on the thesis that a similar stage has been reached with respect to the tools of probability and statistics and that some training in the...
