Introduction

What is an image? An image is represented by its dimensions (height and width) based on the

number of
pixels. For example, if the dimensions of an image are 500 x 400 (width x height), the total
number of pixels in the image is 200000.

What is pixel ?
This pixel is a point on the image that takes on a specific shade, opacity or colour. It is
usually represented in one of the following:

Grayscale – A pixel is an integer with a value between 0 to 255 (0 is completely black and
255 is completely white).

RGB – A pixel is made up of 3 integers between 0 to 255 (the integers represent the intensity
of red, green, and blue).
RGBA – It is an extension of RGB with an added alpha field, which represents the opacity of
the image.

Image processing requires fixed sequences of operations that are performed at each pixel
of an image. The image processor performs the first sequence of operations on the image,
pixel by pixel. Once this is fully done, it will begin to perform the second operation, and so
on. The output value of these operations can be computed at any pixel of the image.
