摘要:
An electronic camera for producing an output image of a scene from a captured image signal includes a first imaging stage comprising a first image sensor for generating a first sensor output and a first lens for forming a first image of the scene on the first image sensor, and a second imaging stage comprising a second image sensor for generating a second sensor output and a second lens for forming a second image of the scene on the second image sensor, where the lenses have different focal lengths. A processing stage uses the sensor output from one of the imaging stages as the captured image signal and uses the images from both imaging stages to generate a range map identifying distances to the different portions of the scene.

An imaging system and method for producing a digital image from pixel signals captured by a pixel array is disclosed. First pixel signals, generated during a first exposure period, are read out from a first group of pixels of the pixel array. The first group of pixels is reset after reading out the first pixel signals.Second pixel signals from the first group of pixel are read out after resetting the first group of pixels. The second pixel signals are generated during a second exposure period. Third pixel signals from a second group of pixels of the pixel array are read out. The third pixel signals are generated during a third exposure period that overlaps at least a portion of the first and second exposure periods. The first, second, and third pixel signals are used to produce the digital image.

A method for using a capture device to capture at least two video signals corresponding to a scene, includes: providing a two-dimensional image sensor having a plurality of pixels; reading a first group of pixels from the image sensor at a first frame rate to produce a first video signal of the image scene; reading a second group of pixels from the image sensor at a second frame rate for producing a second video signal; and using at least one of the video signals for adjusting one or more of the capture device parameters.

A method for producing a digital image from pixel signals captured by an image sensor array is disclosed. The method includes: providing an image sensor array having at least two groups of pixels wherein the pixels of each group are uniformly distributed over the sensor; exposing the image sensor array to scene light and reading pixel charge from only the first group of pixels to produce a first set of pixel signals; after producing the first set of pixel signals, exposing the image sensor array, and then reading pixel charge from the second group of pixels and reading again pixels from the first group to produce a second set of pixel signals; and using the first and second sets of pixel signals to produce the digital image.
摘要:
One or more input video sequences and a set of person-of-interest (“POI”) information are received. The set of POI information identifies at least one person-of-interest. A particular video sequence is identified that prominently or relatively prominently displays at least the person-of-interest. The particular video sequence is identified from (a) the input video sequence(s), or (b) a portion of the input video sequence, if only one was received, or a portion of one of the input video sequences, if more than one was received. Then, a customized output video is generated from at least a portion or portions of the input video sequence(s), the customized output video being generated based at least upon the set of POI information to include at least the particular video sequence.

A method of enhancing a digital image produced by a digital imaging device, includes using the digital imaging device to capture at least two original digital images of the same scene with each digital image being under two different lighting conditions and producing for each such digital images a plurality of pixels; using the pixel values of at least two of the captured digital images under different lighting conditions to produce difference values; and modifying the pixel values of the original digital image in response to the corresponding difference values.

Moveable display units providing a gaming experience, each display unit includes one or more displays that when actuated change a visual image associated with the display. There is an operator interface including a computer and a first transceiver for sending and receiving signals from the moveable display units. Each moveable display unit includes a second transceiver and an associated sensor for detecting a marker indicating the position of the display unit and for providing a signal to the first transceiver, which communicates with the computer. The computer responds to the signal to cause the first transceiver to send a signal to the second transceiver on the moveable display unit to actuate a change in the visual image associated with such moveable display unit.
