Abstract:
Provided is a motion estimation apparatus for moving picture coding. The apparatus includes a 1-pel buffer for storing 1-pel unit pixels using luminance signals of a reference frame which correspond to macroblocks of a current frame, a 1-pel estimator for calculating 1-pel unit motion vectors and minimum costs in correspondence to the macroblocks of the current frame and the pixels stored in the 1-pel buffer, a ½-pel interpolator for performing ½-pel unit interpolation using the pixels stored in the 1-pel buffer, a ½-pel buffer for storing the ½-pel unit interpolated pixels, a ½-pel estimator for calculating ½-pel unit motion vectors and minimum costs in correspondence to the pixels stored in the ½-pel buffer, the values calculated by the 1-pel estimator, and the macroblocks of the current frame, a ¼-pel interpolator for performing ¼-pel unit interpolation using the pixels stored in the ½-pel and 1-pel buffers, a ¼-pel buffer for storing the ¼-pel unit interpolated pixels, and a ¼-pel estimator for calculating ¼-pel unit motion vectors and minimum costs in correspondence to the pixels stored in the ¼-pel buffer, the values calculated by the ½-pel estimator, and the macroblocks of the current frame.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for controlling power of mufti core processor, which includes a power control device by core unit, controls a plurality of power-related parameters by core unit, and thus decreases a load for power management and enables realization of a low power multi core processor through minute power control. The apparatus includes a processor core adapted to provide code information on an application program for executing to a power regulation controller, and a power regulation controller adapted to receive the code information on the application program from the processor core to determine an operation frequency of the processor core, set an operation voltage, a clock-gating value and a power-gating value according to the determined operation frequency, and provide the set values and voltage to the processor core.
Abstract:
A video processing system includes a frame memory, an input video buffer, a macroblock buffer, a first search window buffer, a second search window buffer, a deblocked macroblock buffer, and a frame memory controller. The frame memory stores frame data. The input video buffer stores input data and transfers the input data to the frame memory. The macroblock buffer stores a plurality of macroblocks. The first search window buffer stores a search region of a reference frame for coarse motion estimation. The second search window buffer stores a search region of a reference frame for fine motion estimation. The deblocked macroblock buffer stores the performance results of a deblocking filter. The frame memory controller performs write/read operations on the input video buffer, the macroblock buffer, the first search window buffer, the second search window buffer, the deblocked macroblock buffer and the frame memory.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an ultrasonic probe for producing a real-time three dimensional live action image (a four dimensional image), which has a long lifetime, and an improved image quality, can prevent malfunction. The ultrasonic probe for producing a four dimensional image includes power transmission means for transmission of power from an upright motor to a module (2) having acoustic elements for swinging the module, the power transmission means includes a first link (20) having a horizontal portion (22) directly connected to a motor shaft, and a sloped portion projected upward from one side end of the horizontal portion at an angle in conformity with a locus of a swing action of the module, and a second link (21) comprising a horizontal (29) having an interlocking connected thereto and a pair of parallel portion (30) and (31) projected upwardly from opposite ends of the horizontal portion, such that the second link is interlocked along the first link in a state of being interposed between the first link and the module, wherein the interlocking shaft (28) is connected with an inclined portion of the first link by a shaft and the pair of parallel portions is mounting to a lower side of the module in a horizontal direction with a shaft.
