20120219222 | Methods and Systems for Determining a Document Region-of-Interest in an Image - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for identifying a document region in a non-scanned image. A first candidate document region-of-interest mask may be determined from a luminance-only image by foreground elimination, non-uniformity reduction and thresholding. A second candidate document region-of-interest mask may be formed by subtracting from the first candidate document region-of-interest mask an edge mask resulting from detecting edges in the luminance-only input image. The second candidate document region-of-interest mask may be refined, to form a final document region-of-interest mask, based on text features calculated from the luminance-only input image. The document region-of-interest may be extracted using the final document region-of-interest mask. | 08-30-2012 |
20120249554 | Methods and Systems for Mobile Document Acquisition and Enhancement - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for correcting artifacts in a camera-captured image of a document or image of an object exhibiting document-like content. A mobile device may capture an image and send the image to a cloud computing system for processing. According to a first aspect of the present invention, the mobile device may provide real-time feedback cues to assist in the capture of an image. The mobile device may detect a region-of-interest in the captured image, and a user may refine or confirm the detected region-of-interest. The captured image, information identifying the region-of-interest and a metadata tag, referred to as a region-of-interest modification tag, indicating whether, or not, the region-of-interest was refined by a user may be sent to the cloud. The cloud may process the image giving priority to the region-of-interest received from the handset when the region-of-interest modification tag indicates that the region-of-interest was refined by a user over a cloud determined region-of-interest. The cloud may transmit, to the handset, the processing results. | 10-04-2012 |

20140168162 | TOUCH SENSITIVE DISPLAY SYSTEM - A display includes a display area that emits light and a border region surrounding at least a portion of the light emitting region. A light guide plate is overlaying the display area. A lighting module is operatively interconnected with the light guide plate to provide light to the light guide plate and positioned within the border region, and a one camera module is operatively interconnected with the light guide plate to sense light from the light guide plate and positioned within the border region. The display determines a position of a touch on the light guide plate by determining a location of frustrated total internal reflection within the light guide plate as a result of the touch on the light guide plate. | 06-19-2014 |
20140212047 | Methods, Systems and Apparatus for Determining Orientation in a Document Image - Aspects of the present invention are related to systems, methods and apparatus for determining the orientation of a text line or a page in a document image. According to a first aspect of the present invention, an image of text blobs may be generated from a text mask associated with a document image. From the text-blob image, pixel-wise horizontal differences may be accumulated and compared to accumulated pixel-wise vertical differences. Text line orientation may be determined as horizontal when the accumulated pixel-wise horizontal differences are less than the accumulated pixel-wise vertical differences. According to a second aspect of the present invention, page orientation may be determined by reconciling an estimated text-line orientation with document language information. | 07-31-2014 |
