| 20100177981 | Face image processing method - A face image processing method is applied to an electronic device, such that the electronic device can perform a face detection to a digital image to obtain a face image in the digital image automatically, and perform a skin color detection to the face image to exclude non-skin features such as eyes, eyeglasses, eyebrows, a moustache, a mouth and nostrils on the face image, and form a skin mask in an area range of the face image belonging to skin color, and finally perform a filtering process to the area range of the face image corresponding to the skin mask to filter high-frequency, mid-frequency and low-frequency noises of an abnormal skin color in the area range of the face image, so as to quickly remove blemishes and dark spots existed in the area range of the face image. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100166334 | Method for magnifying images and videos - This invention is a method applicable to an image processing device, which includes the steps of providing a preprocess module for extracting a high-frequency portion of an image inputted into the device, extracting a gradient of the image and decomposing the image into plane and edge regions according to a predetermined fixed threshold, and providing a composite up-scaling module for executing the magnification processes on the image and the high-frequency portion thereof respectively, wherein the magnification process of plane regions of the image and the high-frequency portion is based on a simple interpolation while the edge regions of the image and the high-frequency portion is based on both a smart interpolation and the simple interpolation. The magnification results of the image and the high-frequency portion are then processed by a fusion process, so as to output an image having sharp but not blocky edges, rich details and strong contrast. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100153078 | Image processing system and method for simulating real effects of natural weather in video film - The present invention is to provide an image processing system and a method thereof implemented to a series of images in a video film of an outdoor scene, which includes: defining types of free-falling objects (such as raindrops, snowflakes or hailstones) related to natural weather; reading information of a selected type of the free-falling objects so as to randomly generate falling positions and vertical falling textures of the free-falling objects in each image; detecting a grayscale value of the image, and defining a certain region of the image where the grayscale value exceeds a predetermined grayscale value as a deposited region; simulating a deposited status of the free-falling objects in each deposited region; and integrating the vertical falling texture and the deposited status into the video film for simulating the free-falling objects in the images, so as to produce effects approximating real effects of natural weather in the video film. | 06-17-2010 |
