Sampling & Quantization: Resolution, Bit-Depth, and Visual Artifacts

Sampling

Low resolution can destroy small objects; aliasing introduces misleading patterns.

Quantization

8-bit is common; low bit-depth creates banding and loss of subtle gradients.

Production note

Choose resolution based on the smallest object you must detect.
