'''Java Advanced Imaging''' ('''JAI''') is a [[Java platform]] extension [[API]] that provides a set of [[object-oriented]] interfaces that support a simple, high-level [[programming model]] which allows developers to create their own image manipulation routines without the additional cost or licensing restrictions, associated with commercial image processing software.

'''JAI''' is provided as a free download directly from [[Oracle Corporation]] for the [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[Solaris Operating(operating Systemsystem)|Solaris]], and [[Linux]] platforms. [[Apple Inc.]] provides a [[Mac OS X]] version of the [[API]] from their website for [[Mac OS X v10.3]]; [[Mac OS X v10.4]] and later ships with it preinstalled.

While the API is provided in [[Java (programming language)|Java]], [[Platform-specific model|platform-specific]] implementations can either use the pure Java implementation or provide an implementation that takes advantage of [[native mode|native]] technology on the platform to provide better performance.
