Signal Processing Opens New Views on Imaging [Special Reports]

The importance of signal processing in imaging is growing rapidly as technologies continue to develop and mature and as various fields begin to recognize the value of innovative new imaging and image analysis systems. By enabling people to clearly observe and detect things that are not ordinarily visible or not readily apparent to the unaided eye, signal processing-driven imaging technologies are helping to save lives and property from hazards lurking both on the ground and below the earth´s surface.
