Image mosaic is a mosaic which consists of tiny, but self-contexted images. The history of image mosaic is brief because the making of image mosaic is more of a computing intensive task rather than manually achievable. Image mosaic has become popular since it has appeared on magazine covers, ads, and posters.
Since image mosaic consists of many small image tiles, very high resolution display is required to see every image tile in full resolution. In this paper, image mosaic software that runs on a large display wall is implemented. PARADIGM (Parallel Display for Image and Graphics Manipulation), the large display wall system, includes 96 LCD displays and 27 commodity PCs.
In this thesis, we compare image mosaic results depending on some factors such as color models, cell subdivision and tile matching sequences. We also show the implementation of PARADIGM server/client model, PARADIGM protocols, and PARADIGM APIs.
