The Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) tutorial provides an overview of JAI features, source code, and demos in the form of an interactive book. Examples show key JAI functionality and coding style to incorporate advanced imaging features into programs or applets, including:

• Convolution filtering
• Basic image arithmetic operators
• Look up table operations (brightness and contrast)
• Pan and zoom
• Image compositing

The tutorial was written using the Java Foundation Classes and Project Swing components. To view this tutorial or to develop applets using JAI, you must download and install the Java Plug-In and the JAI package. This tutorial is also available in application form on the JAI web site.
