3-D Drawing and Rendering
• 3D graphics tools, such as Macromedia Extreme3D, or Form-Z, typically extend vector-
drawn graphics in 3 dimensions (x, y and z) X y Z
• A 3D scene consist of object that in turn contain many small elements, such as blocks,
cylinders, spheres or cones (described in terms of vector graphics)
• The more elements, the finer the object’s resolution and smoothness.
3-D Drawing and Rendering
• Objects as a whole have properties such as shape, color, texture, shading & location.
• A 3D application lets you model an object’s shape, then render it completely.
Features of a 3-D Application
Modeling involves drawing a shape, such • Rendering : produces a final output of a
as a 2D letter, then extruding it or lathing scene and is more compute-intensive.
it into a third dimension.
• extruding : extending its shape along
a defined path
• lathing : rotating a profile of the shape
around a defined axis
• Modeling also deals with lighting,
setting a camera view to project
shadows.

Image Capturing Methods
• Types of Image Capturing Methods:
1. Scanner
2. Digital Camera
1. Scanner:
• Scanners are devices that create digital images from physical documents or images.
• They work by passing a light source over the document or image and detecting the
reflected light with a sensor.
• Scanners come in various types, including flatbed scanners (which have a flat glass surface
for placing documents) and sheet-fed scanners (which automatically feed documents
through the device).
• They are commonly used for digitizing photographs, artwork, documents, and other printed
materials.
Types of Scanner
1. Handheld Scanners:
• It is portable devices that can be moved manually over a document or image to capture a
digital copy. They typically feature a scanning head and sensors enclosed in a handheld unit,
which is moved steadily across the surface of the document or image.
• Best Use: It is use for capturing images of large or bulky items that cannot be easily
transported to a flatbed scanner.
• They are also handy for capturing images in remote locations or in situations where a
traditional scanner is not available.
2. Flatbed Scanners:
• It is the most common type of scanner. They feature a flat, glass surface onto which
documents or images are placed for scanning.
• They work by moving a scanning head beneath the glass while illuminating the document
from below and capturing the reflected light with sensors.
• Best Use: Flatbed scanners are ideal for scanning documents, photographs, artwork, and
other flat items that can be placed on the scanning bed.
3. Sheet-fed Scanners:
• Sheet-fed scanners are designed to automatically feed individual sheets of paper or
documents through the scanner.
• They typically have a feeder mechanism that pulls in documents one by one and scans them
as they pass through the device.
• Best Use : for scanning multiple documents quickly and efficiently, making them ideal for
digitizing large volumes of paper documents, such as in office environments or document
management systems.

2. Digital Camera
• A Digital camera is a similar to a traditional film based camera, but it captures Images
digitally.
• When you take a picture from digital camera the image is recorded by a sensor called a
―charged coupled device ― or CCD,CMOS(Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor)
• Digital cameras capture images electronically using an image sensor.
• Instead of saving the picture on analog film like traditional cameras.
• Digital cameras Save a Photos in Digital Memory.
• Some Digital camera have built in memory.
Process of Digital Camera:
• Lite Enter the Camera through a lens,
• And sensor captures the light
• Converting into digital data
• The camera’s Processor the processor then Processes this data to create the find image.
They come in various forms including:
1. Compact Digital Cameras: Also known as point-and-shoot cameras, these are small,
portable, and easy to use.
2. Digital Single-Lens Reflex (DSLR) Cameras: These offer interchangeable lenses and
manual controls, providing greater flexibility and control over image capture.
Image Capturing Methods Count…
3. Mirrorless Cameras: Similar to DSLRs but without the mirror mechanism, making them
smaller and lighter.
4. Smartphone Cameras: Most modern smartphones are equipped with built-in cameras
capable of capturing high-quality images, offering convenience for everyday photography.
3. Webcams:
• Webcams are cameras specifically designed for capturing video or still images for real-time
communication over the internet.
• They are commonly integrated into laptops, computer monitors, or external devices.
4. CCTV Cameras:
• Closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras are used for surveillance and security purposes,
capturing video images of specific areas.
• They are commonly used in public spaces, businesses, homes, and government facilities.

6. Document Cameras:
• Also known as visualizers or digital presenters, these cameras are specifically designed for
capturing documents, books, or 3D objects and displaying them in real-time on a screen or
projector.
Introduction to Color Modes
• The color mode of an image specifies which basic set of colors is used to make up an
image.
• Some common basic sets of colors used to make up full-color images are Red, Green, and
Blue (RGB mode) and Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black (CMYK mode; Black is
represented by the letter K).
• You can specify the color mode in the Image → Mode menu.
• Colors within most color modes are stored in color channels. You can view the channels in
the Channels palette.
Different ways of representing information about color.
• Models used to specify color in computer terms are:
• RGB model - A 24-bit methodology where color is specified in terms of red, green, and
blue values ranging from 0 to 255.
• HSB and HSL models – Color is specified as an angle from 0 to 360 degrees on a color
wheel.
• Other models include CMYK, CIE, YIQ, YUV, and YCC.
Color models:
1. RGB
2. CYMK
3. Hue, Saturation and Brightness
RGB color mode:
• Red, Green, and Blue are used to make
up the image's color. RGB is often
called "additive color".
• Tonal values range from 0 (black) to
255 (white), for each of the three
colors.
• RGB mode see Figure is used to
display images on-screen because
monitors use Red, Green, and Blue
light to display color.
• This color mode is used by all monitors
and works by combining specific
amounts of red, green and blue per
pixel to create an image. It is also
commonly used when color-correcting
images.
CMYK color mode:
• Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black are used
to make up the image's color. CMYK is
often called "subtractive color."
• Tonal values range from 0 percent (no
color) to 100 percent (maximum amount of
color) for each of the four colors.
• Four channels: Cyan (C ), magenta (M),
yellow (Y) and black (K)
• Based on light-absorbing quality of ink
printed on paper • In theory, pure colors should produce black,
• CMYK mode is used when printing but printing inks contain impurities, so this
images with Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and combination produces muddy brown
Black inks. • K is needed to produce pure black, hence
• This is the color model used by four-color CMYK is four-color process printing
printing presses and is also the basis for
inkjet printing systems. It is designed for
physical mediums like paper.
Hue, Saturation and Brightness
• Based on the human perception of color, the
HSB model describes three fundamental In common use, hue is identified by the
characteristics of color: name of the color, such as red, orange or
HSB and HSL Color: green.
• Based on human perception of color, three
fundamental properties of color:
• Hue: angle of 0 -360 degrees
• Saturation: intensity of color (%)
• Brightness / Lightness :relative lightness
or darkness of color (%)
Hue:
• Changes the color. For example, you can
change a blue sky (and all other blue
objects) from cyan to purple.
• Color reflected from or transmitted
through an object.
• It is measured as a location on the
standard color wheel, expressed as a Hue - color reflected from or transmitted
degree between 0° and 360°. through an object, measured on color
wheel
Hue, Saturation and Brightness Count…
Saturation:
• Changes the purity of the color. For
example, you can change a blue sky from
gray to highly saturated blue.
• Strength or purity of the color (sometimes
called chroma).
• Saturation represents the amount of gray in
proportion to the hue, measured as a
percentage from 0% (gray) to 100% (fully
saturated).
• On the standard color wheel, saturation
increases from the center to the edge. Brightness
• Brightness (Luminance):
• Changes the brightness of the color
range.
• Relative lightness or darkness of the
color usually measured as a percentage
from 0% (black) to
• 100% (white).
Image resolution
• The resolution of an image is determined by the number of individually addressable points that
make
• up the image, whether it is the number of pixels that make up a screen image.
• Computer display screens are made up of a grid of thousands of pixels.
• The number of pixels that they can display per inch (dpi) or ppi, gives us the information we
need for
• determining the size or image resolution our bitmap graphics should have.
Various Attributes of Images
Size
Color
Depth Etc
Various attributes of images
Size:
• The digital size of an image, measured in kilobytes (K), megabytes (MB), or gigabytes
(GB).
• File size is proportional to the pixel dimensions of the image.
• Images with more pixels may produce more detail at a given printed size, but they need
more disk space to store and may be slower to edit and print.
• For instance, a l-by-1-inch, 200 dpi image contains four times as many pixels as a l-by-1-
inch, l00-dpi image and so has four times the file size.
• Image resolution thus becomes a compromise between image quality (capturing all the data
you need) and file size.
• Another factor that affects file size is file format--due to varying compression methods used
by gif, jpeg, and png file formats, file sizes can vary considerably for the same pixel
dimensions.
• Color bit-depth and the number of layers and channels in an image affect file size.
Color:
• Think of a channel as analogous a plate in the printing process, with a plate applying each
layer of color.
• In addition to these default color channels, channel called alpha channels, can be added to
an image for storing and editing selections as masks
• spot color channels can be added to add spot color plates for printing.
Various attributes of images Count…
Color:
• An image can have up to 24 channels.
• By default, bitmap-mode, grayscale, duotone, and
• Indexed-color images have one channel.
• Rgb and lab images have three;
• Cmyk images have four.
• You can add color channels to all image types except bitmap mode images.
Depth:
• Bit depth--also called pixel depth or color depth or only depth-measures how much color
information is available to display or print each pixel in an image.
• Greater bit depth (more bits of information per pixel) means more available colors and
more accurate color representation in the digital image.
For example
• A pixel with a bit depth of 1 has two possible values: black and white.
• A pixel with a bit depth of 8 has 28, or 256, possible values.
• A pixel with a bit depth of 24 has 224, or roughly 16 million, possible values.
• Common values for bit depth range from 1 to 64 bits per pixel.
Various attributes of images Count…
Depth
• More bits Provide more color depth, hence more photo-realism;
• But require more memory and processing power.

Image compression
• Image compression is the minimizing the size in by it’s of a graphics file without degrading
the quality of the image to an unacceptable level.
• The reduction in file size allows more images to be stored in a given amount of disk or
memory space.
• Also reduces the time required for images to be sent over the internet or download from web
pages.
• Two most common compressed graphics image formats are the JPEG and GIF.
Image format conversion
1. Lossy Compression:
• Reduce the file size to large extend. Quality of the image also degraded but reep the
appearance of the image as intact as possible while Making the Simplification.
• We have to compromise with the quality of image.
• It restores the large file to it’s original from without loss of some data which can be
considered as not –noticeable.
• It is commonly used for compressing photographic images.
Examples:
• JPEG: Widely used for compressing photographic images on the web, in digital
photography, and in various other applications.
• WebP: Developed by Google, WebP supports both lossy and lossless compression and
is designed to provide superior compression compared to JPEG.
2. Lossless Compression:
• It is reduce file size without sacrificing image quality.
• It is preferred when maintaining the original image quality is crucial, such as when
compressing graphics, logos, text, or images with sharp edges.
• Examples :
• PNG : Widely used for images on the web that require transparency or where lossless
compression is desired.
• GIF : Often used for simple animations, icons, and images with a limited color palette.
• TIFF (Tagged Image File Format): Commonly used in professional environments for
storing high-quality images and graphics.

choose one of the subcategories, such as Faded Photo, Panels, Monotone Color, Textures,
or Vintage Photo.
• Frame
• Apply a variety of effects to the edges of a selected layer, or to a portion of a layer. A
frame also creates a drop zone where you can add or change the contents easily.
• Image Effects
• Apply effects to a copy of a selected layer. Adding the Blizzard effect to an image
makes it look like snow is falling. The Neon Glow effect turns the image into a
dramatic neon picture. You can use Image effects, such as Oil Pastel or Soft Focus, to
soften colors or blur an image. You can also combine Image effects, but you may be
prompted to flatten layers first.
• Textures
• Apply texture layers to an image. You can add texture to a new, blank image as a
background, or add a texture to an existing image. By arranging layers, and working
with opacity and other layer tools, you can create interesting and attractive images.
