The Java 2D API implements a new imaging model that supports the manipulation of fixed-resolution images stored in memory. A newImageclass in thejava.awt.imagepackage,BufferedImage, can be used to hold and to manipulate image data retrieved from a file or a URL. For example, aBufferedImagecan be used to implement double buffering--the graphic elements are rendered off-screen to theBufferedImageand are then copied to the screen through a call toGraphics2DdrawImage. The classesBufferedImageandBufferedImageOpalso enable you to perform a variety of image-filtering operations, such as blur and sharpen. The producer/consumer imaging model provided in previous versions of the JDK is supported for backward compatibility.
