Retouche numériqueImage editing encompasses the processes of altering s, whether they are digital photographs, traditional photo-chemical photographs, or illustrations. Traditional analog image editing is known as photo retouching, using tools such as an airbrush to modify photographs or editing illustrations with any traditional art medium. Graphic software programs, which can be broadly grouped into vector graphics editors, raster graphics editors, and 3D modelers, are the primary tools with which a user may manipulate, enhance, and transform images.
Fabrication assistée par ordinateurvignette|300px|Disque en alliage chrome-cobalt avec couronnes pour implants dentaires usiné à l'aide du logiciel de FAO WorkNC Dental Le but de la fabrication assistée par ordinateur ou FAO (en anglais, computer-aided manufacturing ou CAM) est d'écrire le fichier contenant le programme de pilotage d'une machine-outil à commande numérique. Ce fichier va décrire précisément les mouvements que doit exécuter la machine-outil pour réaliser la pièce demandée. On appelle également ce type de fichiers : programme ISO ou blocs ISO.
Image numériqueL'appellation d'image numérique désigne toute (dessin, icône, photographie...) acquise, créée, traitée et stockée sous forme binaire : acquise par des convertisseurs analogique-numérique situés dans des dispositifs comme les scanners, les appareils photo ou les caméscopes numériques, les cartes d’acquisition vidéo (qui numérisent directement une source comme la télévision) créée directement par des programmes informatiques, grâce à une souris, des tablettes graphiques ou par de la modélisation 3D (ce que l’on appelle, par abus de langage, les « images de synthèse ») ; traitée grâce à des outils graphiques, de façon à la transformer, à en modifier la taille, les couleurs, d’y ajouter ou d'en supprimer des éléments, d’y appliquer des filtres variés stockée sur un support informatique (clé USB, SSD, disque dur, CD-ROM.
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.
Numerical controlNumerical control (also computer numerical control, abbreviated CNC) is the automated control of machining tools (such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers) by means of a computer. A CNC machine processes a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, stone, or composite) to meet specifications by following coded programmed instructions and without a manual operator directly controlling the machining operation.
Digital image processingDigital image processing is the use of a digital computer to process s through an algorithm. As a subcategory or field of digital signal processing, digital image processing has many advantages over . It allows a much wider range of algorithms to be applied to the input data and can avoid problems such as the build-up of noise and distortion during processing. Since images are defined over two dimensions (perhaps more) digital image processing may be modeled in the form of multidimensional systems.
CraftA craft or trade is a pastime or an occupation that requires particular skills and knowledge of skilled work. In a historical sense, particularly the Middle Ages and earlier, the term is usually applied to people occupied in small scale production of goods, or their maintenance, for example by tinkers. The traditional term craftsman is nowadays often replaced by artisan and by craftsperson. Historically, the more specialized crafts with high-value products tended to concentrate in urban centers and their practitioners formed guilds.
ArtisanAn artisan (from artisan, artigiano) is a skilled craft worker who makes or creates material objects partly or entirely by hand. These objects may be functional or strictly decorative, for example furniture, decorative art, sculpture, clothing, food items, household items and tools and mechanisms such as the handmade clockwork movement of a watchmaker. Artisans practice a craft and may through experience and aptitude reach the expressive levels of an artist.
Appareil photographique numériqueUn appareil photographique numérique (ou APN) est un appareil photographique qui recueille la lumière sur un capteur photographique électronique, plutôt que sur une pellicule photographique, et qui convertit l'information reçue par ce support pour la coder numériquement. Un appareil photo numérique utilise un capteur CCD ou CMOS pour acquérir les images, et les enregistre habituellement sur des cartes mémoire (CompactFlash, SmartMedia, Memory Stick, Secure Digital, etc.).
Manufacturing engineeringManufacturing engineering or production engineering is a branch of professional engineering that shares many common concepts and ideas with other fields of engineering such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, and industrial engineering. Manufacturing engineering requires the ability to plan the practices of manufacturing; to research and to develop tools, processes, machines and equipment; and to integrate the facilities and systems for producing quality products with the optimum expenditure of capital.
