20100271512MULTIPLE EXPOSURE HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE IMAGE CAPTURE - Techniques for creating a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image within a consumer grade digital camera from a series of images of a scene captured at different exposure levels, and displaying the HDR image on the camera's built-in display, are provided. The approach employs mixing images of the series to incorporate both scene shadow and highlight details, and the removing of “ghost” image artifacts appearing in the mixed HDR image resulting from movement in the scene over the time the series images are captured. The low computational resource utilization of the present invention's image mixing and ghost removal processing operations, along with the present invention's ability to commence image mixing and ghost removal prior to the acquisition of all series images, can significantly reduce the time required to generate and display a tone mapped HDR image.10-28-2010
20110103644METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE DETECTION WITH UNDESIRED OBJECT REMOVAL - A method and image detection device are provided for removal of undesired objects from image data. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting image data for a first frame, detecting image data for a second frame, and detecting motion of an undesired object based, at least in part, on image data for the first and second frames. Image data of the first frame may be replaced with image data of the second frame to generate corrected image data, wherein the undesired object is removed from the corrected image data. The corrected image data may be stored.05-05-2011

20110243788FRESH SCENTS AIR FILTERS SYSTEMS - A scented air filters system comprising a cardboard frame wherein a porous filter media is housed for use in filtering airborne particulates from the air where ever air conditioning systems, furnaces, and evaporative cooling systems may be utilized. The filters are for use in both residential and commercial buildings. A breakably-actuated scent container is located in the squeezably-deformable cardboard frame having porous filter media. The scent containers are activated when fractured by squeezing the frame between the thumb and fingers before installing the filter in the vent housing. The scented material is scented liquid comprising oil, non-oil, granulated solids, or gel(s). Fragrance is dispersed as air flows through the filter and ducting system.10-06-2011

20100002426Multi-directional lighting fixture - The multi-directional lighting fixture includes a lighting fixture having a substantially elongated opaque housing with first and second ends with an open top for emitting light in an upward direction and a longitudinal slot along the bottom surface of the housing extending between the first and second ends. The longitudinal slot includes a shielding material, such as a louver or cover, with a predetermined degree of light translucence. The housing has a substantially elliptical cross section tapering towards one end of the housing. The ends of the housing have elliptical translucent members that can transmit lighting horizontally and radially outward from the interior of the housing. Two or more housings can be coupled together in series.01-07-2010
