digital signal processing (DSP)
Inside a camera, sensor signals must be processed in several steps before they can be displayed / transmitted. Typical processing steps are amplification, gamma correction, black level correction, highlight compression/clipping, edge enhancement, color processing, color balance, color correction, output signal encoding. Picture quality is highly dependent on the accuracy and the stability of these processes. In DSP technology, the sensor signal is converted to digital form after initial amplification, and all processing is achieved digitally, ensuring high quality and no drift. Output signals remain in digital form or are converted back to analog depending on the camera output mode.
