Capteur photographiqueUn capteur photographique est un composant électronique photosensible servant à convertir un rayonnement électromagnétique (UV, visible ou IR) en un signal électrique analogique. Ce signal est ensuite amplifié, puis numérisé par un convertisseur analogique-numérique et enfin traité pour obtenir une . Le capteur est donc le composant de base des appareils photo et des caméras numériques, l'équivalent du film (ou pellicule) en photographie argentique.
Digital imagingDigital imaging or digital image acquisition is the creation of a digital representation of the visual characteristics of an object, such as a physical scene or the interior structure of an object. The term is often assumed to imply or include the , , , printing and display of such images. A key advantage of a , versus an analog image such as a film photograph, is the ability to digitally propagate copies of the original subject indefinitely without any loss of image quality.
Digital cinematographyDigital cinematography is the process of capturing (recording) a motion picture using s rather than through film stock. As digital technology has improved in recent years, this practice has become dominant. Since the mid-2010s, most movies across the world are captured as well as distributed digitally. Many vendors have brought products to market, including traditional film camera vendors like Arri and Panavision, as well as new vendors like Red, Blackmagic, Silicon Imaging, Vision Research and companies which have traditionally focused on consumer and broadcast video equipment, like Sony, GoPro, and Panasonic.
Radiosité (physique)In radiometry, radiosity is the radiant flux leaving (emitted, reflected and transmitted by) a surface per unit area, and spectral radiosity is the radiosity of a surface per unit frequency or wavelength, depending on whether the spectrum is taken as a function of frequency or of wavelength. The SI unit of radiosity is the watt per square metre (), while that of spectral radiosity in frequency is the watt per square metre per hertz (W·m−2·Hz−1) and that of spectral radiosity in wavelength is the watt per square metre per metre (W·m−3)—commonly the watt per square metre per nanometre ().
Radiométrievignette|Une sphère intégrante, moyen de mesure de la puissance lumineuse ou de la réflectivité d'un objet. La radiométrie est le domaine qui étudie la mesure de l'énergie transportée par les rayonnements, dont les rayonnements électromagnétiques comme la lumière visible. Certains domaines de la radiométrie forment une discipline particulière. Dans le domaine de l'éclairage et de la captation d'images, la photométrie étudie les rayonnements du point de vue de la vision humaine.
