|
||
image processing community. The image was originally cropped from the
|
||
November 1972 issue of <i class="citetitle">Playboy Magazine</i>, which
|
||
anglicized the model's name with a double n. It has interesting properties
|
||
— complex feathers, shadows, smooth (but not flat) surfaces —
|
||
that are pertinent in demonstrating various processing algorithms for image
|
||
compression, filtering, dithering, texture mapping, image recognition, and
|
||
so on. After a quarter century of remaining completely unaware that she
|
||
had become an icon, a gray-haired but still winsome Lenna finally met her
|
||
fans at a computer graphics conference in 1997. There is a fan page at
|
||
<a href="http://www.lenna.org" target="_top">www.lenna.org</a>, with more
|
||
details. Compare <a href="../U/Utah-teapot.html"><i class="glossterm">Utah teapot</i></a>
