Marriott Marquis Hotel, New York, Saturday, February 8, 1997, 9:30 am to 5:30 pm.
Computers and communication systems have now reached the stage where
is it possible to have photographic-quality color pictures. But smooth motion
and accurate color, though easy to achieve in video equipment, remain beyond
the reach of general purpose computers.
This full-day course is based on my book, A
Technical Introduction to Digital Video. Each registrant will receive
a copy of the book, along with a set of course notes.
The course will help computer system designers, engineers, programmers and
technicians to learn the techniques of digital video, to bring smooth motion
and accurate color to computing. If you are a television professional, this
course will help you to understand the technology at the core of digital
video.
The course is part of SMPTE's 31st
Annual SMPTE Advanced Motion Imaging Conference. Consult SMPTE's web
pages for registration details, including details about the registration
fee which will range between $135 and $175, depending upon whether you're
a member of SMPTE and whether you register in advance.
