Abstract:
A video processing system may be operable to utilize multi-band sharpening to process luma signals for image signals. The luma signal may be decomposed into a plurality of frequency band components, wherein each component may be processed separately using different sharpening gains and/or offsets. The multi-band processed components may be combined to generate sharpened output luma signals. The multi-band sharpening may be performed utilizing peaking processing, and the input luma signal and/or LTI sharpened luma signals may be combined with the multi-band peaking sharpened signals to generate the sharpened output luma signals. Corresponding chroma signals may also be adjusted to generate sharpened output chroma signals. Luma and/or chroma sharpening operations may be further adjusted based on coring, clipping avoidance, luma statistics, color region detections, and/or curve control parameters. Sharpened output image signals may be generated based on the sharpened output luma signals and the sharpened output chroma signals.
Abstract:
A method and system for performing sample rate conversion is provided. The method may include configuring a system to convert a sample rate of a first audio channel of a plurality of audio channels to produce a first audio stream of samples. The system may be dynamically reconfigured to convert a sample rate of a second of the plurality of audio channels to produce a second audio stream of samples, wherein the first and second audio streams are output from the system at the same time. The method may further include arbitrating between request for additional data from the first and second audio stream of samples, where processing of the first channel is suspended when the request corresponds to a second channel that is of higher priority.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of a method and system for a flexible multiplexer and mixer (FMM) are disclosed. Aspects of one method may include mixing primary audio information and secondary audio information of sampled received audio data based on corresponding metadata information to generate mixed output audio data. The generated mixed output audio data may be pulled through a plurality of pipeline stages.
Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for modifying print parameters. In one embodiment, a scanner automatically scans a print media and/or packaging for the print media. In an alternate embodiment, a RFID interrogator interrogates an RFID for the print media and/or print media packaging. A detection module detects an identifier of the print media, a printed image on the print media, and/or print media packaging. The identifier may be one or more symbols and/or one or more physical characteristics. An attribute module determines an attribute of the print media in response to the identifier. The attribute is relevant to color calibration for printing on the print media. A modification module modifies a print parameter in response to the attribute. The print parameter may modify a rendition command that renders a digital image on the print media.
Abstract:
A system of network proxies distributes data to multiple servers. Each network proxy is associated with a server. A network proxy intercepts a client request for data. If the network proxy determines that the request can be served using a copy of data stored on the local server, rather than the data stored on a remote server, it diverts the request to the local server. If the network proxy determines that the request cannot be served using a data from the local server, the network proxy diverts the request to a remote server storing the primary copy of the data. A server map specifies the locations of the primary copies of data. When a primary copy of data is updated on one of the servers, the associated network proxy propagates the updated data to the other servers. The servers can provide data from files, e-mail services, databases, or multimedia services.
Abstract:
A lower cradle and wheel bracket arrangement for golf cart is constructed to include a cradle body, a support member pivoted to the cradle body, a wheel bracket pivoted to the support member and holding a front wheel, a first lock adapted to lock the support member to the cradle body, and a second lock adapted to lock the wheel bracket to the support member.
Abstract:
A demodulator (10) converts television signals to video baseband signals and audio baseband signals including stereo signals representing a right channel signal value and a left channel signal value. A DSP (60) recursively finds a preferred coefficient value for a scaling that reduces stereo separation due to amplitude variation of the right and left channel signal values. The preferred coefficient value is thereafter used for scaling the right and left channel signal values.
Abstract:
An architecture for data retrieval from a plurality of coupling queues. At least first and second data queues are provided for receiving data thereinto. The data is read from the at least first and second data queues with reading logic, the reading logic reading the data according to a predetermined queue selection algorithm. The data read from by reading logic and forwarded to an output queue.
