    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting an object borderline. A first image with respect to the object can be captured by an image-capturing unit without a flash light and borderlines of the object can be detected. If the detection is successful, the detected borderlines can be outputted. Otherwise, a second image with respect to the object can be captured by the image-capturing unit by applying a flash light and the borderlines can be detected in the image. A geometric transformation between the two images can then be estimated. Finally, the border lines in the first image can be determined by transforming the borderlines detected in the second image. Such an approach effectively detects the appliance borderlines and avoids artifacts caused by applying flash.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for improving driver visibility during bad weather and/or poor lighting for objects such as road signs, road lines, road markings, etc. The disclosed approach can enhance the captured images by exploiting priori knowledge about the scene and the objects that are stored in a database. In general, the orientation and location of a vehicle can be determined, and data can be retrieved which is indicative of stationary objects that are anticipated to be detectable at a current orientation and location of the vehicle. A captured scene is compared to data retrieved from the database using the information regarding the orientation and the location of the vehicle such that a matching scene indicates where objects are expected to appear in the captured scene and improve driver visibility with respect to the vehicle during poor driving conditions.

    Abstract: A system captures or otherwise receives a video and uses the video to create an electronic file corresponding to a multi-faceted printed artifact, such as a multi-page document. When the system receives the video, it selects a set of some or all of the video's image frames, determines a frame quality for each frame in the set, and identifies a subset of the frames such that the frame quality of each frame in the subset satisfies one or more image quality criteria. The subset will include at least one frame for each facet of the multi-faceted printed artifact, such as a page of the document. The processor then automatically combines the subset of frames into a single electronic file.
