Assembling a complete imaging system requires the integration of optics, sensing, image processing and display rendering. The scope of this topical meeting encompasses all aspects of modern digital imaging systems. In particular, its aim is to highlight how different materials, components, and processing combine to determine imaging system performance. The meeting brings together scientists and engineers working on military, industrial, medical, and consumer imaging. Invited speakers from the military, academic, and commercial imaging sectors will provide interesting presentations on the current status and future of imaging in their organizations. Academic and industry researchers working on imaging systems, as well as scientists and engineers working on military imaging applications are invited to submit papers.
