This happens before we consciously perceive visual information, breaking down images into color, brightness, shapes, and angles.
Brain Processing
Light's Journey
Display and Perception
This particular element from the sun travels to Earth, bounces off a subject, passes through a camera lens, and is converted into binary data. This data is then compressed, stored, and later decompressed for viewing.
Brain Processing
Light's Journey
Display and Perception
The processed light information is displayed on a screen, and our eyes analyze it similarly to how they would if viewing the subject directly.

Each piece of color information, the red, green, or blue level, is referred to as a (a)
When converting from RGB to YUV, approximately _% of the color range is lost.
(a)
adjusts transparency/opacity
alpha channel
luma key
chroma key
masking
Converts the luminance level of each pixel to its alpha channel, making darker pixels more transparent and brighter pixels more opaque.
alpha channel
luma key
chroma key
masking
Adjusts the alpha channel based on color, commonly using green to make pixels of that color transparent, allowing for background replacement.
alpha channel
luma key
chroma key
masking
Defines which areas of an image are transparent or opaque, often used in video editing to combine different visual elements seamlessly.
alpha channel
luma key
chroma key
masking
Changing the opacity of a pixel by blending its color and luminance values with the pixel behind it
Blending Pixels
Blending Modes
These are mathematical methods used in software to combine the values of the foreground pixel with the background pixel in various ways.
