 What is image processing?

Image processing is a method to perform some operations on an image, in order to get an enhanced image or to extract some useful information from it. it is a type of signal processing in which input is an image and output may be image or characteristics associated with that image. Nowadays, image processing is among rapidly growing technologies. it forms core research are within engineering and computer science disciplines too.


Image processing basically includes the following three steps.

1. Importing the image via image acquisition tools.

2. Analyzing and manipulating the image.

3. Output in which result can be altered image or report that is based on image analysis.

What are the applications of image processing in computer science?

Some of the major fields in which digital image processing is widely used are mentioned below

  • 1. Image sharpening and restoration

  • 2. Medical field

  • 3. Remote sensing

  • 4. Transmission and encoding

  • 5. Machine/Robot vision

  • 6. Color processing

  • 7. Pattern recognition

  • 8. Video processing

  • 9. Microscopic Imaging

  • 10. Others
