Abstract: The present disclosure provides image capture devices and associated methods that feature intelligent use of hardware-generated statistics. An example image capture device can include an imaging hardware pipeline that generates frames of imagery. The imaging hardware pipeline can generate one or more hardware-generated statistics based at least in part on, for example, the raw image data captured by the image sensor or intermediate image data within the pipeline. The image capture device can analyze the hardware-generated statistics to determine one or more metrics for the raw image data or the image. The image capture device can determine a downstream operation of the image capture device relative to the image based at least in part on the metrics determined from the hardware generated statistics.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image capture, curation, and editing system that includes a resource-efficient mobile image capture device that continuously captures images. In particular, the present disclosure provides low power frameworks for processing, compressing, and transmitting images at a mobile image capture device. One example low power framework includes a scene analyzer that analyzes a scene depicted by a first image and determines whether to store the first image in a non-volatile memory or to discard the first image from a temporary image buffer without storing the first image in the non-volatile memory.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an image capture, curation, and editing system that includes a resource-efficient mobile image capture device that continuously captures images. In particular, the present disclosure provides low power frameworks for controlling image sensor mode in a mobile image capture device. On example low power frame work includes a scene analyzer that analyzes a scene depicted by a first image and, based at least in part on such analysis, causes an image sensor control signal to be provided to an image sensor to adjust at least one of the frame rate and the resolution of the image sensor.

Abstract: An integrated stacked and/or abutted sensor, memory and processing hardware camera solution is described. The sensor is to receive light from an image and generate electronic pixels from the light. The processing hardware is to process the electronic pixels to: a) recognize a scene from the image in a lower quality image mode; b) trigger actions by the camera solution in response to the recognition of the scene, the actions including: i) transitioning the camera solution from the lower quality image mode to a higher quality image mode to capture a higher quality version of the image; and, ii) forwarding from the camera solution important imagery and not forwarding from the camera solution unimportant imagery.
