I am occasionally asked about some of the more technical details in my work with color imaging devices. Here is some of the material I have published or presented over the years.

Digital Film: Hiding the
Raster (pdf, 250K) |
Don't confuse sharpness with resolution. This paper illustrates the requirements for pixel size and spacing in digital images. |

Continuous Colors (pdf, 360K) |
In which the number of bits required to represent a black to white ramp is established (it's more than 8). |
