Abstract:
A system for the remote control of a computer and the remote display of the information. The system comprises a bases computer (13) and a remote display and control terminal (18) which a connect via a rf link.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring including capturing video frames over time, processing data from the captured video frames into derived data representing a rate of change of the captured data, creating new frames from the derived data, and storing and/or displaying the new frames.
Abstract:
A method for obtaining a quantization factor for image compression by quantization of coefficients of a transformation of an image or part thereof, comprising determining an entropy related sensitivity to quantization of at least a part of the image; and determining a quantization factor based on the entropy related sensitivity.
Abstract:
A method for compressing an image in a sequence of pseudo-video frames of a lower resolution than the image, comprising providing a video encoder fit for at least one of a spatial or temporal compression, providing an image, dividing the image into a plurality of partitions and encoding the partitions into pseudo-video frames by the encoder.
Abstract:
A vision system for a vehicle (Fig. 4), the vision system including at least one (Fig. 4, item 31), and preferably a plurality of video image acquisition devices mounted on the vehicle for acquiring three-dimensional video images of at least one portion of the environment of the vehicle (Fig. 4, items 31, 34), a 3D goggle-free display mounted inside the vehicle (See Fig. 4, item 35), for displaying the acquired 3D images on the 3D display (Fig. 4, items 35, 36, and 37).
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for new scene detection in a sequence of video frames, comprising: a frame selector for selecting a current frame and one or more following frames; a down sampler, associated with the frame selector, to down sample the selected frames; a distance evaluator to find a statistical distance between the down sampled frames; and a decision maker for evaluating the statistical distance to determine therefrom whether a scene transition has occurred or not.
Abstract:
A system and method for rapid multimedia data compression and transmission for a wireless remote monitor. The method of multimedia data compression according to the present invention adjusts the compression method according to the type of software application which generated the multimedia data, and hence according to the characteristic of the data itself. Preferably, the type and profile of multimedia data compression is selected by a profile manager (7), which detects the characteristics of the multimedia data to determine the character of the data, and then which selects the multimedia data compression method and profile (11) according to the multimedia character. The compression method and system may be used with a device for remotely displaying information from a monitor of a main computer and for remotely and fully controlling the main computer.
Abstract:
A method for digital video image stabilization, the method including: estimating, from at least one portion of a frame, global frame displacement between an initial reference digital video frame and a current frame in a video sequence of frames; verifying, for the entire frame, the validity of the estimated frame displacement; and compensating for the estimated frame displacement by aligning at least one frame in the sequence with respect to the initial reference frame; wherein the step of aligning includes producing a corrected motion vector for the frame to be aligned and displacing the frame within the video frames sequence in accordance with the corrected motion vector.
Abstract:
A method for compressing an image as a sequence of video frames, comprising dividing the image into a plurality of tiles and compressing a tile, or part thereof, as a frame in the video sequence.
Abstract:
A system and method for transmitting presentation data from a controlling computer (34) to a remote projector (10) through a wireless connection, such as the controlling computer is not connected to the remote projector by a wire or cable, or other physical transmission medium. The presentation data may optionally include text, graphic images, video and/or audio data, and is created at the controlling computer. The controlling computer then transmits the presentation data to the remote projector, which display the presentation data to an audience.
