Abstract

How to construct a digitization of a straight line and how to be able to recognize a straight line in a set of pixels are very important topics in computer graphics. The aim of the present paper is to give a mathematically exact and consistent description of digital straight lines according to Rosenfeld's definition. The digitizations of lines with slopes 0
