- Classes in java.awt.image used by java.applet
  Class and Description
  ImageObserver An asynchronous update interface for receiving notifications about Image information as the Image is constructed.

- Classes in java.awt.image used by java.awt
  Class and Description
  BufferedImage The `BufferedImage` subclass describes an `Image` with an accessible buffer of image data.
  BufferedImageOp This interface describes single-input/single-output operations performed on `BufferedImage` objects.
  BufferStrategy The `BufferStrategy` class represents the mechanism with which to organize complex memory on a particular `Canvas` or `Window`.
  ColorModel The `ColorModel` abstract class encapsulates the methods for translating a pixel value to color components (for example, red, green, and blue) and an alpha component.
  ImageObserver An asynchronous update interface for receiving notifications about Image information as the Image is constructed.
  ImageProducer The interface for objects which can produce the image data for Images.
  Raster A class representing a rectangular array of pixels.
  RenderedImage RenderedImage is a common interface for objects which contain or can produce image data in the form of Rasters.
  VolatileImage VolatileImage is an image which can lose its contents at any time due to circumstances beyond the control of the application (e.g., situations caused by the operating system or by other applications).
  WritableRaster This class extends Raster to provide pixel writing capabilities.

  Class and Description
  BufferedImage The `BufferedImage` subclass describes an `Image` with an accessible buffer of image data.
  BufferedImageOp This interface describes single-input/single-output operations performed on `BufferedImage` objects.
  ColorModel The `ColorModel` abstract class encapsulates the methods for translating a pixel value to color components (for example, red, green, and blue) and an alpha component.
  ComponentSampleModel This class represents image data which is stored such that each sample of a pixel occupies one data element of the DataBuffer.
  DataBuffer This class exists to wrap one or more data arrays.
  ImageConsumer The interface for objects expressing interest in image data through the ImageProducer interfaces.
  ImageFilter This class implements a filter for the set of interface methods that are used to deliver data from an ImageProducer to an ImageConsumer.
  ImageObserver An asynchronous update interface for receiving notifications about Image information as the Image is constructed.
  ImageProducer The interface for objects which can produce the image data for Images.
  IndexColorModel The `IndexColorModel` class is a `ColorModel` class that works with pixel values consisting of a single sample that is an index into a fixed colormap in the default sRGB color space.
  Kernel The `Kernel` class defines a matrix that describes how a specified pixel and its surrounding pixels affect the value computed for the pixel's position in the output image of a filtering operation.
  LookupTable This abstract class defines a lookup table object.
  PackedColorModel The `PackedColorModel` class is an abstract `ColorModel` class that works with pixel values which represent color and alpha information as separate samples and which pack all samples for a single pixel into a single int, short, or byte quantity.
  Raster A class representing a rectangular array of pixels.
  RasterOp This interface describes single-input/single-output operations performed on Raster objects.
  RenderedImage RenderedImage is a common interface for objects which contain or can produce image data in the form of Rasters.
  ReplicateScaleFilter An ImageFilter class for scaling images using the simplest algorithm.
  SampleModel This abstract class defines an interface for extracting samples of pixels in an image.
  TileObserver An interface for objects that wish to be informed when tiles of a WritableRenderedImage become modifiable by some writer via a call to getWritableTile, and when they become unmodifiable via the last call to releaseWritableTile.
  WritableRaster This class extends Raster to provide pixel writing capabilities.
  WritableRenderedImage WriteableRenderedImage is a common interface for objects which contain or can produce image data in the form of Rasters and which can be modified and/or written over.
