Abstract :
Today, with large volumes of data, high throughput requirements, and more complex image processing algorithms, the emphasis is on interactive image processing. Consequently, image displays are beginning to occupy a central role in image processing architectures. This paper presents some historical background on image displays and identifies the functional capabilities required in today´s displays. Provided next is a summary of current image display architectures and system design philosophy. The paper concludes with a projection of technology and indicates what impact these technologies will have on future display systems.
