| 20100067531 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INDEPENDENT CLOCK DOMAINS TO PERFORM SYNCHRONOUS OPERATIONS IN AN ASYNCHRONOUS NETWORK - Method and apparatus are disclosed for synchronizing multimedia in asynchronous networks. In this invention, clock domains are first reduced to separate hardware clock correction circuits at the separate endpoints of an asynchronous network. At each end of the network node, the controllable input device such as a video device is synchronized to the non-controllable output device such as a set top box to prevent unknown or poor-quality alterations by the output device. Output device timestamp packets are regularly sent to the input device, which then adjusts its clock accordingly. The exchange of packets between input devices over the asynchronous network is then subjected to a software-based scheme to effectively synchronize these devices. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100208943 | PERSPECTIVE IMPROVEMENT FOR IMAGE AND VIDEO APPLICATIONS - A system and method for reducing distance-based distortion in a camera image of an object, where the distanced-based distortion is due to differences in distance from the camera to different parts of the object. In one approach, the distortion is reduced by estimating distances to different parts of the object and then generating a reprojected image of the object dependent upon the estimated distances and upon a virtual viewpoint that is more distant than the camera from the object. In a further approach, the image is warped such that points in the image match corresponding points in one or more stored templates. In a still further approach, if excessive distortion is present in the image, the camera zoom is increased and a magnified image is displayed, prompting a person to move farther from the camera thereby reducing the distortion. | 08-19-2010 |
