a) The metric unit for illumination is 1 lumen per square meter.
1 foot candle = 10.76 Lux.
b) A measurement of light. Lux is used in television production to determine the minimum amount of light (lux rating) needed for camera operation. Hence, a “2 lux” camcorder requires less light than a “4 lux” camcorder.
Industry:Software
Relatively more levels of quantization are assigned to small amplitude signals, relatively fewer to the large signal peaks.
Industry:Software
A hole cutter. The signal which is said to “cut a hole” in the background scene for a key effect. In actuality, this signal controls a video mixer which switches between the background scene and the fill video; thus, the key source determines the shape of the key effect.
Industry:Software
a) A combined RF receiver and MPEG decoder that is used to adapt a TV set to digital transmissions. b) An IRD with digital interface has the ability to decode Partial Transport Streams (TS) received from a digital interface connected to digital bitstream storage device such as a digital VCR, in addition to providing the functionality of a Baseline IRD.
Industry:Software
The amount by which a measured video signal output differs from a standard video signal output. The greater this deviation, the greater the video signal distortion and possibility of luminance and chrominance problems. Having gain vary as a function of signal amplitude.
Industry:Software
There are three key types on Ampex switchers; luminance keys, RGB chroma keys, and composite chroma keys.
