Abstract:
A regulated supply voltage can be established using switching cycles defined at least in part according to a switching clock period. Imaging information can be acquired from an imaging sensor and a discrete-time representation of the imaging information can be received. Noise, such as corresponding to the switching cycles, can be reduced or suppressed. In an example, a discrete-valued noise template can be stored in a memory, wherein a count of values in the noise template is less than a count of an entirety of a physical row of pixels from the imaging sensor. The discrete-valued noise template can be aligned with a portion of the discrete-time representation of the imaging information. The noise in the discrete-time representation can be at least partially canceled using the aligned discrete-valued noise template. The template can be constructed such as by aggregating imaging information obtained from an optically-black portion of the imaging sensor.
Abstract:
A system and method for providing a dynamic region of interest in a lidar system can include scanning a light beam over a field of view to capture a first lidar image, identifying a first object within the captured first lidar image, selecting a first region of interest within the field of view that contains at least a portion of the identified first object, and capturing a second lidar image, where capturing the second lidar image includes scanning the light beam over the first region of interest at a first spatial sampling resolution, and scanning the light beam over the field of view outside of the first region of interest at a second spatial sampling resolution, wherein the second sampling resolution is different the first spatial sampling resolution.
