20080250469 | Synchronized transmission of audio and video data from a computer to a client via an interface - A method for controlling data transmission between a computer and a video client via an interface, the method comprising: the computer polling the interface a first time to determine the size of the buffer on the interface; receiving a first buffer size value from the interface; sending a plurality of frames of video and audio data to the buffer on the interface such that a delay period exists between the sending of each frame; the computer polling the interface a second time to determine buffer size after the frames are sent to the interface; receiving a second buffer size value from the interface; and modifying the amount of time between the transmission of frames. | 10-09-2008 |
20110249075 | Remote Control Operations in a Video Conference - Some embodiments provide a method for allowing a first device that is in a video conference with a second mobile device to remotely control the second mobile device. The method sends images captured by a camera of the first device to the second device. The method receives images captured by a camera of the second device. The method sends a command through a communication channel of a real-time communication session to the second device. The command is for instructing the second device to perform an operation that modifies the images captured by the camera of the second device. | 10-13-2011 |
20110249086 | Image Processing for a Dual Camera Mobile Device - Some embodiments provide a method of processing images for a first camera and a second camera of a mobile device using a shared pipeline. A method receives a first set of images captured by the first camera of the mobile device. The method processes the first set of images using a first configuration of the shared pipeline. The method also receives a second set of images captured by the second camera of the mobile device, and processes the second set of images using a second configuration of the shared pipeline different from the first configuration. | 10-13-2011 |

20110298933 | DUAL PROCESSING OF RAW IMAGE DATA - Systems, methods, and devices for dual processing of raw image data by main image processing and alternative image processing capabilities of an electronic device are provided. According to an embodiment, alternative image processing may analyze a first copy of a frame of raw image data before a second copy of the frame of raw image data is processed by main image processing. Thereafter, the main image processing may process the second copy of the frame of raw image. The main image processing may be calibrated based at least in part on the analysis of the first copy of the frame of raw image data. | 12-08-2011 |
20110298945 | COMPENSATION FOR BLACK LEVEL CHANGES - A technique for applying black level compensation to image data is provided. In one embodiment, an image processing system includes a first image processing pipeline configured to receive frames of image data generated by an image sensor and to alter the frames of image data to compensate for black level shift. The image processing system may also include a feed-forward loop having a second image processing pipeline configured to receive at least one of the frames of image data, to process the at least one frame, and to adjust a black level compensation parameter of the first image processing pipeline. Additional methods, systems, and devices relating to black level compensation are also disclosed. | 12-08-2011 |
20120033103 | Raw-Split Mode Image Capture - Systems, methods and a computer readable mediums for reducing run-time bandwidth requirements within digital image capture devices are disclosed herein. As the resolution of digital image capture devices increase, the bandwidth needed to support this increased resolution is becoming increasingly difficult to support. To reduce the problems associated with run-time bandwidth requirements, it may be beneficial to obtain full-resolution and display-resolution images at the same time from the image capture circuitry—writing both to memory at virtually the same time. The display resolution image may then be delivered to a display unit directly without the need for additional memory operations on the full-resolution image. Only when a user indicates they wish to capture an image need additional memory operations on the full-resolution image be performed. | 02-09-2012 |
20130250971 | Methods and Apparatus for Transmitting Data Streams Via A Heterogeneous Network - Methods and apparatus that enable a community of devices having differing underlying protocols to stream media data such as video or audio data. In one exemplary embodiment, this invention enables IEEE 1394-compliant (“FireWire” enabled) devices to communicate across an Ethernet infrastructure, such as one enabled by the Ethernet AVB Standard(s). This enhances connectivity, and also supports obviating one or more physical ports within the device(s). In another embodiment, or more wireless transports are utilized. | 09-26-2013 |
