Visual Computing: The Integration of Computer Graphics, Visual Perception and Imaging

By Markus Gro and Markus Gross

The future of computing and communication will apply visual information to a much larger degree than what we are used to, or even what we envisage today. Visual computing addresses the integration of "visual technology" and provides a concept for a common understanding of Computer Graphics, Visual Perception and Imaging. The goal of this book is to present an overview on important topics within this integration in the spirit of recent worldwide research and development. Foundations of visual perception and of psychophysics are presented as well as basic methods of imaging and computer vision. The book serves as a reference and textbook for those who wish to apply or study "visual computing technology".
