Signal Processing: Continuous and Discrete

A blurry image of stars and its non-blurry counterpart, along with a block diagram of the system.

Data from instruments can be analyzed using filters to enhance different features; here, a deconvolution filter extracts a more detailed image from a blurry photo taken by the Hubble telescope. (Image by Prof. Derek Rowell.)
