| 20110285873 | SYSTEM FOR CAPTURING A DOCUMENT IN AN IMAGE SIGNAL - Devices, methods, and software are disclosed for capturing a frame of image data having a representation of a feature. In an illustrative embodiment, a device includes an imaging subsystem, one or more memory components, and a processor. The imaging subsystem is capable of providing image data representative of light incident on said imaging subsystem. The one or more memory components include at least a first memory component operatively capable of storing an input frame of the image data. The processor is in communicative connection with executable instructions for enabling the processor for various steps. One step includes receiving the input frame from the first memory component. Another step includes generating a reduced resolution frame based on the input frame, the reduced resolution frame comprising fewer pixels than the input frame, in which a pixel in the reduced resolution frame combines information from two or more pixels in the input frame. Another step includes attempting to identify transition pairs comprising pairs of adjacent pixels in the reduced resolution frame having differences between the pixels that exceed a pixel transition threshold. Another step includes attempting to identify one or more linear features between two or more identified transition pairs in the reduced resolution frame. Another step includes providing an indication of one or more identified linear features in the reduced resolution frame. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110285874 | INTERACTIVE USER INTERFACE FOR CAPTURING A DOCUMENT IN AN IMAGE SIGNAL - Devices, methods, and software are disclosed for an interactive user interface for capturing a frame of image data having a representation of a feature. In an illustrative embodiment, a device includes an imaging subsystem, one or more memory components, and one or more processors. The imaging subsystem is capable of providing image data representative of light incident on said imaging subsystem. The one or more memory components include at least a first memory component operatively capable of storing an input frame of the image data. The one or more processors may be enabled for performing various steps. One step may include receiving the image data from the first memory component. Another step may include attempting to identify linear features defining a candidate quadrilateral form in the image data. Another step may include providing user-perceptible hints for guiding a user to alter positioning of the device to enhance a capability for identifying the linear features defining a candidate quadrilateral form in the image data. | 11-24-2011 |
