  2. Visual artifact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_artifact

    In microscopy, an artifact is an apparent structural detail that is caused by the processing of the specimen and is thus not a legitimate feature of the specimen. In light microscopy, artifacts may be produced by air bubbles trapped under the slide's cover slip. [1] In electron microscopy, distortions may be produced in the drying out of the ...

  3. Compression artifact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_artifact

    A compression artifact (or artefact) is a noticeable distortion of media (including images, audio, and video) caused by the application of lossy compression. Lossy data compression involves discarding some of the media's data so that it becomes small enough to be stored within the desired disk space or transmitted ( streamed ) within the ...

  4. Digital artifact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_artifact

    A complicated grid pattern is insufficiently processed by a smartphone camera. A scan of a drawing with large areas of whitespace; the diamond Moiré pattern is a scanning artifact. Digital artifact in information science, is any undesired or unintended alteration in data introduced in a digital process by an involved technique and/or technology.

  5. Screen tearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing

    A typical video tearing artifact (simulated image) Screen tearing [1] is a visual artifact in video display where a display device shows information from multiple frames in a single screen draw. [2] The artifact occurs when the video feed to the device is not synchronized with the display's refresh rate.

  6. Rod (optical phenomenon) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_(optical_phenomenon)

    In cryptozoology and ufology, "rods" (also known as "skyfish", "air rods", or "solar entities") are elongated visual artifacts appearing in photographic images and video recordings. Most optical analyses to date have concluded that the images are insects moving across the frame as the photo is being captured, although cryptozoologists and ...

  7. Rolling shutter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter

    Final results depend on the readout speed of the sensor and the nature of the scene being filmed; as a rule of thumb, higher-end cinema cameras will have faster readout speeds and therefore milder rolling shutter artifacts than low-end cameras. Images and video that suffer from rolling shutter distortion can be improved by algorithms that do ...

  8. Backscatter (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_(photography)

    In photography, backscatter (also called near-camera reflection [1]) is an optical phenomenon resulting in typically circular artifacts on an image, due to the camera's flash being reflected from unfocused motes of dust, water droplets, or other particles in the air or water. It is especially common with modern compact and ultra-compact digital ...

  9. Bayer filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayer_filter

    This can be done in-camera, producing a JPEG or TIFF image, or outside the camera using the raw data directly from the sensor. Since the processing power of the camera processor is limited, many photographers prefer to do these operations manually on a personal computer. The cheaper the camera, the fewer opportunities to influence these functions.
