May 2000 • Vol.6 Issue 5 Page(s) 84 - 87 in print issue Add To My Personal Library Better Graphics Handling With Paint, Imaging & PhotoDraw 2000 The means by which you create and use custom colors is not very clear in Paint. Sometimes you'll find that in the process of setting one custom color, you overwrite one of the existing ones and remove it permanently from the palette. However, if you follow these steps, you can create colors that will happily coexist. To create your custom color, select Colors, click Edit Colors (Options, Edit Colors in Win95 & NT), and in the Edit Colors dialog box, choose the Define Custom Colors button. Select one of the Custom colors boxes as the box into which you'll store the color you are about to create. You can overwrite an existing color by clicking its box

CMOS Cameras
Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) cameras use image sensors that operate at lower voltages than charged coupled devices (CCDs), reducing power consumption for portable applications. Each CMOS active pixel sensor cell has its own buffer amplifier, and can be addressed and read individually.
Color Sensors
Color sensors register items by contrast, true color, or translucent index. True color sensors are based on one of the color models, most commonly the RGB model (red, green, blue).
Graphics Software
Graphics software is used to produce video graphics and to edit and convert graphic files of different formats. These types of software include raster graphics, vector graphics, raster to vector conversion (R2V), and others.
Flat Panel Displays
Flat panel displays (FPDs) are thin, flat, electronic devices used to display data. They are commonly used in notebook computers. Most styles include the housing and ports necessary to connect them to a computer.
Vision Sensors
Vision sensors are industrial products that automate decisions and processes by the use of video cameras linked to application-specific software on a user interface. These are also known as machine vision systems, and are useful for measurement, pass/fail decisions, and inspection.
