20090251601 | Method and device for synchronizing camera systems - The invention relates to a method and to a device for synchronizing the image capture by cameras. For this purpose, a duplex-capable network is provided. Within the network, one or more hardware-supported synchronization modules with a logical channel of a first type are provided, wherein the synchronization module or modules transmit, via the logical channel, image-capture signals that control the capture time of image sensors, wherein the image-capture signals are received by image-capture devices, and wherein the image-capture devices each capture an image as a response to the reception of an image-capture signal, and wherein the image data is then transmitted via the network by the image-capture devices via a logical channel of a second type. | 10-08-2009 |
20100021058 | Method and Apparatus for Image Processing - The invention relates to an image processing apparatus by means of which an image identification can take place in real time and which, with only very little or even no a priori information, is capable of carrying out a pertinent and reliable identification of objects. To this end, the connection probabilities are determined between two contour points in each case, taking into account the distance between the points, by means of a computation mechanism. Further provided is at least one classifier, which takes sets of calculated connection probabilities and selects from them subsets with at least three connection probabilities for possible links between at least three adjacent contour points, one of which is a previously determined central contour point, and, for each subset, sorts out that contour point which is adjacent to the central contour point and which has a possible link with the lowest connection probability to an adjacent contour point, provided that the link does not connect two points that are adjacent to the central point, and subsequently enters the contour points that have not been sorted out in a contour point list with connectors that identify the remaining links to the central point. | 01-28-2010 |
20110134291 | Image-processing device for color image data and method for the image processing of color image data - A digital image-processing device with a Bayer sensor and an image memory is provided in which the image data of the sensor is written into an image memory, and from this image memory, image data in the Bayer format with a length L and a width B is written continuously into a data buffer, and in which the sample values are combined by means of a computational device with the help of adders, in each case symmetrically to a central point of one or more (2n+1)×(2n+1) neighborhoods, and one or more (n+1)×(n+1) matrices are derived by means of the computational device, and from this (n+1)×(n+1) matrix or these matrices, with the help of additional adders, at least one n×n matrix is formed, and a first color component is in each case calculated from this by means of an adder network. | 06-09-2011 |
