MM Hardware Last lesson – about hardware need in multimedia 4/24/2017

MM Hardware Each hardware has its own functions. 1) Scanners are used to convert conventional images, texts, drawings and photos into digital form that can be understood by the computer. 2) Video cameras: analog video camera and digital video camera (DV). An analog video camera records video in analog signals on a magnetic video tape. A digital video camera records video in digital signals, which can be stored in various forms of media, such as digital video tape or memory cards. 4/24/2017 Norhasimah Mohamed, MIT

MM Hardware Each hardware has its own functions. 3) Camera - An ordinary camera, images are captured on a roll of film. In a digital camera, images are captured and stored in a media card. 4) Audio devices - are needed to record analog sound. The sounds are then changed into digital sound. 4/24/2017 Norhasimah Mohamed, MIT

MM Hardware 5) Video capture devices help to convert analog video to digital video. The fire wire helps to transfer the video from video camera to the computer. They also transfer digital video to the computer so that the data can be edited or stored. 4/24/2017 Norhasimah Mohamed, MIT

Time Frame Concept 4/24/2017

Time Frame Concept With time frame concept authoring tools, the multimedia elements or events are presented and organised along a time line. This type of tool helps users coordinate when each multimedia element (text, graphics, audio, video or animation) plays. In time frame concept authoring tools, a timeline consists of layers which span several frames. 4/24/2017

Icon Concept 4/24/2017

Icon Concept The icon concept in authoring tools provides the multimedia developer with a visual programming approach to sequencing events in the multimedia application. In this concept, elements and events are organised in a structural framework. 4/24/2017

Card Concept 4/24/2017

Card Concept The card concept in authoring tools are based on the idea of card stacks containing graphics, audio, video, text and animation. Elements and events in card concept authoring tools are organised as pages in a book or a stack of cards. 4/24/2017
