3. Digital Compositing  Digital compositing is the process of digitally assembling multiple images to make a final image  Digital compositing is generally done through Alpha Blending  Alpha Blending is the process of combining a translucent foreground color with a background color

4. Alpha Blending  α = opacity value f = foreground pixel b = background pixel c = composited pixel  c = α*f + (1 – α)*b  Given the standard RGB Color wheel, three composite pixels will be generated.

5. Marketability?  Aimed towards people who work in image rendering fields. (Movie companies, video game companies, etc)  Generally done via software  Apple Shake  Adobe After Effects  Kodak Cineon  Drastic speed improvement implemented via hardware

6. Automatic Refrigerator  Refrigerator has weight sensors in shelves to keep track of the amount of food  When a certain kind of food is running low, the item is automatically added to the list  The pads can be reprogrammed to be used with different foods (ie. milk, juice, meat, etc…)

7. Market  Helps to remedy frequent trips to the store to get forgotten items.  Refrigerators contain TVs these days. A small chip that adds convenience is entirely reasonable.  Could be expanded to automatically order food online as the internet becomes a main way to shop for food.
