Title: Research the history and development of imaging technology.
Course: Imaging Technology (11054-36) > Section: Introducing Imaging Technology

Research should include the use of resources to gather information, such as

- milestones in the history of imaging technology
- milestones in medical imaging (e.g., radiography, magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], computerized tomography [CT])
- satellite imagery
- milestones in the history of digital imaging (e.g., first charged coupled device [CCD]-based camera, first iteration of editing software, the digital single-lens reflex [DSLR] camera, camera phones, virtual reality [VR]/augmented reality [AR] headsets)
- current applications (e.g., social media, press, photojournalism, drone photography, medicine, entertainment).

Process/Skill Questions:

- Who are the major contributors to the advancement of photography, and what are their contributions?
- What are the major technological developments that have helped move imaging to its present-day status?
- What applications of imaging are used in industry?
- How has imaging influenced society and industry?
