• Keying

values in one of the sources. Keying is used to make portions of the overlay frame

surface can show through it.

See real-time processing.

• Local Area Network (LAN)

Look-up table mapping. A point-to-point operation that uses a table to define a
replacement value for each possible pixel value in an image.

(PCB) traces or a balanced cable.
