摘要: An imager that includes a pixel array with a plurality of columns having rows of pixels and with each pixel having a plurality of photodiodes and a common readout circuit that stores respective accumulation voltages from each of the plurality of photodiodes. The imager further includes row driver circuitry that controls the pixel array for pixel addressing and readout, with the row driver circuitry including a plurality of shift registers, and an image sensor controller that controls the plurality of shift registers to address the rows of pixels in the pixel array. Moreover, the row driver circuitry dynamically upward and downward shifts control signals to the pixel array, such that two rows of pixels in a single column of the pixel array are addressed during a single row time.

摘要: A system and method is provided for minimizing delay time for controlling media content capture during live video broadcast production. The system includes a video production receiver that receives media content streams from one or more cameras that includes live media content captured by the cameras and encoded in a first encoding format. Moreover, a multi-view interface displays the media content and a video production controller generates control instructions based on inputs to the interface to change operation of the cameras capturing the respective media content. A camera controller is included that transmits the generated control instructions to the cameras to change the operation for capturing the respective media content. Moreover, the video production controls production of a live video stream for video broadcast production using media content that is captured from the cameras and that is encoded in a second encoding format different than the first encoding format.

摘要: Automatic tracking by a camera of an object such as on-air talent appearing in a television show commences by first determining whether the object lies within the camera field of view matches a reference object. If so, tracking of the object then occurs to maintain the object in fixed relationship to a pre-set location in the camera's field of view, provided the designated object has moved more than a threshold distance from the pre-set location.

摘要: A media stream receiver is provided for scalable physical layer flow of packetized media streams. The media stream receiver replicates the processing block in time, rather than in hardware, through the use of a single shared memory and pointer alignment calculations, which combines multiple buffering stages as the single, shared memory buffer to offer redundancy and alignment, while acting as a receiver buffer to account for packet delay variations. By doing so the media stream receiver can perform a vertical interval switch between received media streams.

摘要: A production system having a first production path, a second production path, and a control system that causes the first production path to generate a show in a first aspect ratio and the second production path to generate the same show in a second aspect ratio. Moreover, the product system can product a show from live material and from archived material. This aspect operates by producing a first show including multiple stories, segmenting the first show, and storing the show segments in an archive. Then, the system produces a second show using live portions as well as show segments retrieved from the archive. The product system can include a media manager that interacts with a server that may be integrated with the production system. The media manager automatically assigns channels/ports of the server when accessing material stored in the server.

摘要: A method and system for providing access to and control of parameters within a scenegraph includes redefining components or nodes' semantic within a scenegraph. The set of components or nodes (depending on the scenegraph structure) are required to enable access from the Application User Interface to selected scenegraph information. In one embodiment, a user interface is generated for controlling the scenegraph parameters. In addition, constraints can be implemented that allow or disallow access to certain scenegraph parameters and restrict their range of values.

The first pixel may include a first plurality of photodiodes and a first plurality of transfer gates. Each of the first plurality of photodiodes may be associated with a corresponding one of the first plurality of transfer gates. The CMOS image sensor may include a second row of pixels that includes a second pixel. The second pixel may include a second plurality of photodiodes and a second plurality of transfer gates. Each of the second plurality of photodiodes may be associated with a corresponding one of the second plurality of transfer gates. A first one of the transfer gates of the first plurality of transfer gates may be coupled to a first one of the transfer gates of the second plurality of transfer gates.

摘要: A camera using a CMOS image sensor based on a shared pixel array technology avails both high definition (HD) and ultra-high definition (UHD) resolution mode formats. Dynamic pixel management allows for both sequential and binned timing formats of pixel signals using switched capacitor noise reduction techniques. When UHD resolution mode is selected, noise can be reduced using both digital double sampling (DDS) or differential digital double sampling (dDDS), and when HD resolution mode is selected noise can be reduced using DDS. Additionally, both rolling shutter and global shutter modes can be selected when HD resolution mode is selected.

摘要: A system and method is provided for using camera metadata from multiple cameras in a live environment to improve video production workflow. Each camera of the system is provided to media content of a live scene and store camera metadata that includes camera lens, position and gyro setting. This metadata can then be provided to other cameras in the system and/or a control that can generate a 3D metadata feed using the camera metadata. Moreover, based on the metadata feed, control instructions can be generated and transmitted to one or more of the cameras to control camera operations for capturing the media content.
