Abstract
We investigate relations between halftoning and the binary image algebra which includes set and morphological operations. We show that halftoning has important commutative properties with respect to unions, intersections, Minkowski additions and subtractions. Based on this fact a novel approach to implementation of 3-dimensional optical image processing through manipulating 2-dimensional images is proposed.
