光栅印刷加网的打印优化研究

数字加网是指将连续调图像转换成由像素排列的图像的过程,使观察者产生一种连续调图像的错觉.光栅印刷加网是将组成柱面状的复用多张图像形成单一图像,然后打印到一个柱面透镜阵列的平面侧,这样从某一特定角度只能看到组合图像的一部分.为了减少光栅印刷中因相邻像素间缺乏关联和打印机失真而造成的误差,光栅印刷加网作为新一代的加网算法对数字加网提出挑战.在本论文中,讨论了打印机的失真问题,通过更好地控制打印机,达到光栅印刷中减少加网错误的目的.同时,考虑到打印像素对周围像素所产生的灰阶影响,通过各种方法调整打印机分辨率以解决网点重叠,从而减少打印图像模糊.

Printer Optimization for Lenticular Screening

Digital Halftoning refers to any process used to convert continuous-tone images into an arrangement of black and white pixels, creating the illusion of a continuous-tone image. Lenticular screening is the process of multiplexing multiple images together column-wise into a single image which is then printed onto the flat side of a lenticular lens array such that from a given angle only one of the component images is visible. Lenticular screening presents a unique challenge to digital halftoning as a new generation of halftoning algorithms are needed in order to reduce the errors in lenticular prints caused by both lack of correlation between neighboring pixels and printer distortion. In this paper, we have addressed the issue of printer distortion, attempting to reduce error in lenticular prints by achieving a higher level of control over the printer being used for the print. We took into account the influence of a printed pixel on the resulting gray-level of surrounding pixels, adjusting printer resolution to account for dot overlap from various channels in order to reduce blurring within prints.
