Due: Thursday, April 17, 1997. Assignments are due at the beginning of class. Please put your full name, and the assignment number on the upper right of the assignment. Please complete the following exercises from your text: Gonzalez and Woods. 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.17,

Additionally, please answer the following: In contrast enhancement pixels may be processed individually, and pixels can also be modified indirectly through means of a color look up table (CLUT). Nearly all PC's and workstations with color now include CLUT hardware. The CLUT is a hardware hash table for intensities that can be displayed on an output device (monitor). Because the look up table has fewer entries than the frame buffer, typically, the lookup table may be updated more quickly than actually modifying all of the pixels.
Draw/Diagram the framebuffer, LUT, and monitor for an 24 bit (8 bits each for R, G, and B) per pixel frame buffer, that accesses a device which can display 36 bit color (12 bits for each of R, G, and B). Specifically note how many values are in the lookup table, and determine and list the total memory required to store the table.
