Osaamistavoitteet

After completing this course, the student knows how digital cameras and image sensors work; knows the structure of a mobile digital imaging system; understands how automatic exposure, focusing and white balance work; understands digital camera raw image formats, is familiar with challenges of color imaging, knows typical defects in a digital camera raw image and understands their origin in the optical and analog electronics domain (e.g. color distortion, noise); is aware of challenges of camera miniaturization; and finally, is able to implement basic raw Bayer mosaic image processing algorithms to produce a proper RGB image with correction of typical defects and application of basic image enhancements.
