Glossary
Brightness. The balance of light and dark shades in an image.
Component video. The recording and transmission of video using 
separate red, green, blue and synchronization signals. 
Composite video. A type of video signal that encodes picture, 
luminance, and synchronization information so it can be carried in one 
signal.
Contrast. A measure of the tonal differences between the highlights 
and shadows of an image. In a high-contrast image, light areas are very 
bright and dark areas are very dark, with relatively few levels of gray 
between white and black. Contrast is decreased by adding grays.
NTSC. A 525-line video broadcast format developed by the National 
Television Standards Committee. NTSC is widely used in North 
America, Mexico, and Japan.
