    摘要: A digital camera takes interleaved photographs of two different kinds. In one example embodiment, the first kind of photograph is taken using a first set of pixels of the camera's electronic array light sensor and has a short exposure time. The second kind of photograph is taken using a second set of pixels and has a long exposure time. More than one of the short-exposure-time photographs is taken while each long-exposure-time photograph is exposed. The two kinds of photographs are used for different purposes. For example, one kind may be used for performing automatic focusing while the other kind is used for displaying in a live view display. In this way, live view may continue while automatic focusing is performed. In another embodiment, one kind of photograph is used for providing a live view display, and the other is used in selecting exposure settings for a final photograph.

    摘要: A system and method for estimating lens temperature is disclosed. In one embodiment, a camera comprises a body and a lens assembly. The lens assembly comprises a focus mechanism. The body comprises a heat generating element, a sensor proximally located to the heat generating element, and a processor. The sensor is configured to provide a signal responsive to temperature. The processor is configured to apply an input responsive to the signal to a heat transfer model to determine a temperature of the lens assembly. The processor further determines a focus error correction responsive to the temperature of said lens assembly.

    摘要: A gas fuel admission system for use with a gas fuel supply and an internal combustion engine having an engine control unit that produces a desired mass flow signal. The system has a continuously variable gas fuel admission valve having a flow control element and nozzle for metering gas in sonic flow from the gas supply to the engine with insensitivity to the valve discharge pressure. An actuator moves the flow control element relative to the nozzle. The system also has a flow control circuit that responds to the desired mass flow signal from the engine control unit, a gas supply pressure signal from a gas supply pressure sensor, a gas supply temperature signal from a gas supply temperature sensor, and a flow control element position signal from a flow control element position sensor to determine the appropriate flow control element position needed to achieve the desired mass flow at the present engine operating conditions.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and machine-readable and executable instructions are provided for filtering image data. Filtering image data can include determining a desired depth of field of an image, determining a distance between a pixel of the image and the desired depth of field. Filtering image data can also include adjusting a contrast of the pixel in proportion to a magnitude of a weight of the pixel, wherein the weight is based on the distance.

    摘要: A camera creates successive digital images of a scene, and computes a stability measure estimate blur in a final photograph of the scene. The camera combines information such as lens focal length, focus distance, scene brightness value, and shutter speed to determine alternate camera settings that may reduce the blur. The camera communicates to the photographer suggested camera setting changes that may reduce the blur. The communication may optionally happen before the final photograph is taken or after, and may take one of several forms. The camera may optionally be a digital camera. The setting change suggestions may optionally be stored in an image file with a final digital photograph.
