| 20100040297 | Image Processing Device - A compression format identifying unit identifies the compression format of image data stored in a main memory. A transfer function determining unit determines a transfer function in accordance with the compression format of a tile image thus identified. A convolution operation unit subjects a modification request signal and the transfer function thus determined to convolution operation so as to generate a modification direction signal. A read ahead processor reads a tile image from the main memory using the modification request signal, decodes the image, and writes the decoded image in a buffer memory. A display image processor generates a display image using the modification direction signal. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20110102626 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION STORAGE MEDIUM - Provided is an image processing device, an image processing method, and a program which can prevent a total processing time from significantly increasing while maintaining precision of image processing at a high level, where an image acquiring section sequentially acquires images generated by imaging a predetermined subject to be imaged; an image processing executing section executes, in each of sequentially-arriving processing periods, image processing on the image acquired by the image acquiring section; a preprocessing execution result output section outputs an execution result of preprocessing performed on the image in part of the sequentially-arriving processing periods, the image having been acquired by the image acquiring section before the part of the sequentially-arriving processing periods; an execution result holding section keeps holding the execution result output by the preprocessing execution result output section at least until the execution result is output next time by the preprocessing execution result output section; and the image processing executing section executes the image processing by applying the execution result held in the execution result holding section to the image acquired by the image acquiring section. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110158524 | Image Processing Apparatus And Image Processing Method - A main memory stores M-bit gradation image data (M is a natural number). A correction function generating unit generates a correction function in N-bit gradation (N is a natural number, N>M) from image data. A display image generating unit generates display image data using a correction function generated by the correction function generating unit. The display image generating unit uses a correction function so as to generate display image data resulting from correcting image data obtained by decoding compressed image data in M-bit gradation with the restriction of M-bit quantization. | 06-30-2011 |

| 20090115720 | Liquid crystal display, liquid crystal display module, and method of driving liquid crystal display - A liquid crystal display includes: a light source section including a plurality of lighting sections; a light source driving section for determining a light intensity of each lighting section according to the image signal inputted and driving the light source section so that each lighting section is independently activated with the light intensity determined; a liquid crystal display panel; and a display driving section for driving the liquid crystal display panel based on the image signal. In a case that a display region corresponding to the lighting section includes a high-luminance part and a low-luminance part, the display driving section corrects the image signal in the low-luminance part so that the display luminance of the low-luminance part results in the same level as the display luminance under a maximum light intensity of the corresponding lighting section, and drives the low-luminance part according to the image signal corrected. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090310880 | SIGNAL PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A signal processing apparatus includes a separation unit configured to separate first image data into a first component in which an edge of the first image data is saved and a second component in which elements other than the edge are saved, an improvement unit configured to apply a processing of improving a transient on the first component separated by the separation unit, and an adder unit configured to add the first component on which the processing by the improvement unit is applied with the second component separated by the separation unit and output second image data obtained as a result of the addition. | 12-17-2009 |
