Abstract: There is provided a navigation device including an image sensor and a processing unit. The image sensor is configured to capture reflected light of a work surface with a low-speed period to generate image frames, wherein the image sensor captures a pair of image frames in each low-speed period. The processing unit is configured to calculate acceleration according to the pair of image frames to accordingly identify whether to adjust the low-speed period to a high-speed period.

Abstract: There is provided a navigation device including an image sensor, an analog to digital converter and a processor. The image sensor is used to output an analog image using an exposure time. The analog to digital converter is used to convert the analog image to a digital image using a resolution. The processor is used to identify an image quality of the digital image, and adjust at least one of the exposure time of the image sensor and the resolution of the analog to digital converter according to the image quality thereby adjusting the operation power by changing data length actually processed by the processor.

Abstract: A navigation device including an image sensor, a processor and a memory is provided. The memory stores a lookup table of a plurality of moving speeds each corresponding to one frame period. The image sensor captures image frames successively. The processor calculates a current speed according to a current image frame and a previous image frame, reads a frame period from the lookup table according to the calculated current speed, wherein the read frame period is multiplied by a ratio, which is smaller than 1, when an acceleration is confirmed by the processor according to the captured image frames.

Abstract: A clock calibration method of a navigation system is provided. The clock calibration method includes: entering a calibration mode; sequentially issuing, by a host, a count start signal and a count end signal separated by a time interval; counting a local oscillation frequency of a local oscillator when a navigation device receives the count start signal from the host; disabling the counting when the navigation device receives the count end signal from the host and generating a current count; generating a calibration signal according to the current count and a predetermined count corresponding to the time interval; and calibrating the local oscillation frequency of the local oscillator according to the calibration signal.

Abstract: There is provided a 2-stage moving average filter for a navigation device including a delta regulator and an N-taps average circuit. The delta regulator is used as a first stage to receive motion delta at a varied frequency, and combine or split the received motion delta to output a regulated motion delta at a fixed frequency. The N-taps average circuit receives and averages N regulated motion delta and outputs the averaged motion delta at a fixed frequency.
