Out of the three questions offered for Phi Theta Kappa’s Competitive Edge Level One‚ the second question appealed to me the most. I am a lover of history—particularly the American Revolution and Japanese history—so I was drawn to write about my favorite historical figure. This also hearkens back to one of my essays for the spring scholarship application‚ which won me a Coca-Cola Leaders of Promise Scholarship. I am happy to share my thoughts on my favorite historical figure one more time. I mentioned

implementation of various image processing algorithms like edge detection using mask filters‚ edge enhancement‚ interpolation etc resulting in better images suitable for diagnosis. The algorithmic computations in real-time may have high level of time based complexity and hence the use of digital signal processors (DSPs) for the implementation of such algorithms is proposed here. We employed TI 320 DM642 DSP for the purpose of image enhancement and edge detection purposes in our work. The problem required
