摘要:
Apparatus and methods for conditional display of a stereoscopic image pair on a display device are disclosed. Particularly, some implementations include receiving a first image and a second image, determining a vertical disparity between the first image and the second images, and displaying a stereoscopic image pair if the vertical disparity is below a threshold. Some implementations provide for correcting the vertical disparity by generating at least one corrected image, and generating the stereoscopic image pair based on the corrected image. Some implementations may evaluate the quality of the stereoscopic image pair, and display either a two dimensional image or the stereoscopic image pair based on the evaluation.

The disclosure is directed to creating an inertial sensor aided depth map of a scene. An embodiment of the disclosure captures at least a first image and a second image during movement of a device caused by a user while framing or recording the scene, compensates for rotation between the first image and the second image, calculates an amount of translation of the device between the first image and the second image, calculates a pixel shift of a plurality of key points of the first image and the second image, and estimates a depth to one or more of the plurality of key points of the first image and the second image.

This disclosure describes techniques for triggering recording of digital video in a fast frame rate mode. In one example, a digital video recording apparatus includes a video sensor that captures digital video data at a fast frame rate in a fast frame rate mode, a video buffer that buffers the captured digital video data according to a first-in-first-out storage schema, a video storage that stores digital video data, and a motion detection unit that detects fast motion in the buffered digital video data, that stores digital video data from the video sensor in the video storage after detecting the fast motion, and that copies the contents of the video buffer to the video storage prepended to the stored video data. The digital video recording apparatus may be incorporated in a wireless communication device, such as a cellular phone.

An example image capture device determines a region of interest using a first image captured while a light source is powered off and a second image captured while a light source is powered on and uses the region of interest to automatically set configurations. In one example, an image capture device includes a controlled light source, an image sensor configured to capture images, and a processing unit configured to cause the image sensor to capture a first image of a scene while the controlled light source is powered off, cause the image sensor to capture a second image of the scene while the controlled light source is powered on, calculate luminance differences between a plurality of regions in the first image and a plurality of collocated regions in the second image, and determine that a region of interest includes those regions for which the luminance differences exceed a threshold.

A digital image system identifies defective pixels of a digital image sensor based on sensor values of pixels positioned in at least two dimensions on the digital image sensor. The exemplary imaging system includes a buffer for receiving sensor values that are each associated with a pixel in the digital image sensor and electronics for comparing the sensor value associated with a test pixel to the sensor values of pixels positioned in at least two dimensions on the digital image sensor. The electronics determines whether the test pixel is a defective pixel based on the comparison.

This disclosure describes image processing techniques that facilitate the determination of the lighting condition associated with an image. Once the lighting condition is determined, white balance can be performed on the image such as by applying white balance gains defined for the lighting condition. According to the techniques of this disclosure, gray point lines are defined and plotted for the different lighting conditions, and cylindrical bounding volumes are defined around the gray point lines, e.g., in a three-dimensional color space. The image is then analyzed with respect to each of the cylindrical bounding volumes to determine how many pixels of the image fall within the respective cylindrical bounding volumes formed around the gray point lines for the different lighting conditions. Based on this analysis, the actual lighting condition can be determined. The use of cylindrical bounding volumes can significantly improve the process of determining lighting conditions relative to conventional techniques.

A device has a processing unit to implement a set of operations to use both luma and chroma information from a scene of an image to dynamically adjust exposure time and sensor gain. The processing unit collects bright near grey pixels and high chroma pixels in the scene. Based on the collected pixels, brightness of the near grey pixels is increased to a predetermined level without saturation. At the same time, the high chroma pixels are kept away from saturation.

A two-dimensional (2D) mesh is applied over a distortion surface to approximate a lens roll-off distortion pattern. The process to apply the 2D mesh distributes a plurality of grid points among the distortion pattern and sub-samples the distortion pattern to derive corrected digital gains at each grid location. Non-grid pixels underlying grid blocks having a grid point at each corner are adjusted based on the approximation of the lens roll-off for the grid points of the grid block. In one example, bilinear interpolation is used. The techniques universally correct lens roll-off distortion irregardless of the distortion pattern shape or type. The technique may also correct for green channel imbalance.
