Abstract

In this paper we investigate properties of a digital object obtained by taking the integer points within an offset of a certain radius of the object. Our considerations apply to digitizations of arbitrary path-connected sets in an arbitrary dimension n. Corollaries are derived for the important special case of surfaces, as well as for offsets of disconnected sets.
