Optimizing Sampling Structures

In this chapter, it is discussed how the theoretical results of chapter 7 on sampling and interpolation and the knowledge about human spatial perception of chapter 8 can be combined in the design of a sampling-and-interpolation system. Such a system contains an image sensor, such as a camera, that converts analog input images into discrete images, and a display that converts discrete images into analog output images that are intended for a human observer. The observer characteristics play a role in the design, since it is the combined characteristic of the display and the observer that determines the interpolation function.
