    Abstract: An image-based motion sensor has a camera system and a processing system. The camera system generates an image output including a plurality of captured images. The processing system obtains a motion sensor output by processing the image output, and identifies a user input as one of a plurality of pre-defined user actions according to the motion sensor output. Different functions of at least one application performed by one electronic device are controlled by the pre-defined user actions. The motion sensor output includes information indicative of at least one of a motion status and an orientation status of the image-based motion sensor. Each of the captured images has more than one color component, and only values of one single color component are involved in obtaining the motion sensor output.

    Abstract: A method for denoising images by block-matching three-dimensional (BM3D) method is disclosed in the present invention. Embodiments of the present invention are used to improve the quality of captured images. Instead of using the same noise variance to denoise all patches of an image, each patch is processed based on a particular assessed noise variance. The assessed noise variance of one reference patch is determined based on noise variance associated with the patch set or based on content characteristics associated with the patch set. The patch set is obtained by block-matching to find similar patches of the reference patch. Noise reduction in frequency domain is applied to the patch set according to the assessed noise variance of the reference patch. The determining of the assessed noise variance can be performed in spatial domain or in frequency domain.
