Would You Care To Be Digitized?
How is it to be digitized?
Gibberish speaking, digitize, as explained in the field of
computer science, is the conversion of any continuously
different source of input, i.e., lines in a drawing, or a signal
of sound, into a series of hidden units embodied in a computer
through binary digits 0 and 1.
As an example, the scanning of a drawing or a picture means
digitizing it because of the conversion of lines and shading
into combinations of 0s and 1s with the sensing of various light
and dark intensities.
It is a matter of translating commonly through the use of
analogue-to-digital converters. Sampling sounds and the
conversion of text that is on paper into computer files text are
also ways of digitization.
In simpler terms, to digitize is to turn an analog signal into a
digital symbol of that signal. It is the translation of data
into digital form. It is executed by reading an analog signal
(often related to electrical)
A, and, at regular sequence, representing A's value at that
point by a digital value. Each of these readings is known as a
sample.
Examples of digitization
Digital cameras
A digital camera is an instrument of digitization. It's because
it samples the original light that bounces off a thing to
produce a digital image. This is one benefit given by
digitization.
It produce devices that are very useful and fun to manipulate.
Not only do digital cameras eliminate the need for a film,
subsequently getting rid of the fuss of processing, the picture
could also be seen immediately after the photographer takes it.
DVD's
One more common example of digitization is transferring VHS to
DVD. This process involves accepting the signal of the video
with the use of professional specialized hardware and writing to
the hard drive of computers.
Digitization permits the
content to be corrected on its color,
sound and its remastering. Thus, the output video from a VHS,
which is converted to a DVD, is a lot more top quality because
of digitization.
Digital TV's
Images seen on television screens especially on digital TV's are
also products of digitization. Digital TV's convey clearer,
sharper images than those produced by common analog televisions.
Through digitizing the images they become more realistic looking
with the help of a wide screen. Brands like Philips, Sony,
Samsung, Panasonic, Toshiba, Zenith and Sharp are currently
profiting well from this innovation brought by digitization.
Cellular Phones
The new type of wireless communication from personal
communication service phones is also created by digitization.
Transmission and reception has never been a breeze without
digitizing. Digital bytes are what handle calls, which results
in clearer and less-prone to interference signal. Nokia,
Samsung, Panasonic, and Sanyo are presently the top players of
this field brainchilded through digitizing.
With almost every information resorted to being digitized, soon
enough personal, social, educational, and commercial goals will
be much easier to to achieve.
Competition becomes much harsher but a lot friendlier to
consumers that are ever thirsty for more innovative ways of
communicating and retrieving information from various sources.
Devices have never been this so capable to multi-task without
the help of digitization. With this technology, geographic
boundaries are no longer considered as what limits communication
and other interactive endeavors.
