| 20120081379 | IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM - A method of storing an image on a storage device in a tiled format is provided. The method includes formatting the storage device to include a block size such that a tile size is an integer multiple of the block size, and the tile size corresponds to a display output. The method further includes reading pixel data of a source image; and generating, from the read pixel data, a first tile and a second tile. The first tile and the second tile each have overlapping portions that overlap by an adjustable amount, and the overlapping portions include substantially identical pixel data. The method also includes storing the first tile and the second tile on the storage device; and repeating the reading, generating, and storing a plurality of times to store the image. The image is stored on the storage device as a contiguous string of data. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20110229040 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONVERTING AN IMAGE - A system and method for determining statistical data within an image having pixels with relatively higher bit depth per band and a system and method of converting a first image within the image having pixels with the relatively higher bit depth per band into a second image having a relatively lower bit depth per band. The higher bit depth per band includes greater than 8 bits per band. The method of determining statistical data for pixels of an image includes dividing the image having pixels with the higher bit depth per band into a plurality of polygonal sections, each polygonal section including substantially homogenous features; computing statistical data for pixels within each polygonal section; and storing the statistical data with the image. | 09-22-2011 |
| 20100073371 | LARGE FORMAT VIDEO ARCHIVAL, STORAGE, AND RETRIEVAL SYSTEM AND METHOD - The present invention is for an apparatus and method to archive, store and retrieve large format video. The apparatus includes means for storing temporally sequential image sections of the digital files in tiled and overlapping format in a storage drive, and means for streaming temporally sequential image data to a display without substantial computer operating system intervention, wherein the streaming is performed so that display interrupts are applied to allow accumulation of information and change of a display image occurs during intervals. The method includes formatting a storage device to include a block size that is an integer multiple of a tile size, wherein the tile size corresponds to a display output and storing a sequence of image frames on the storage device, wherein a first video is comprised of a first temporal sequence of first tiles. | 03-25-2010 |
