METHOD AND CIRCUITRY FOR EXPOSURE COMPENSATION APPLIED TO HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE VIDEO
20230239577 · 2023-07-27 ·

A method and a circuitry for exposure compensation applied to a high dynamic range video are provided. The circuitry is adapted to an image-acquisition device. In the method, when a video is received, the pixel values for each of the sequential frames can be obtained. Next, an exposure value ratio between two adjacent frames is obtained. A processor exposure value ratio of an image signal processor can be regarded as an initial exposure value ratio. A fixed adjustment ratio is used to control the image signal processor and an image sensor of the image-acquirement device so as to calculate an exposure value ratio for each of the frames. The exposure value ratio is referred to for performing the high dynamic range compensation for the frames so as to output an HDR video.

Acquisition of optical characteristics

An apparatus (1, 5, 6) is described which includes two or more colour displays (2) arranged to provide piece-wise continuous illumination of a volume. The apparatus (1, 5, 6) also includes one or more cameras (3). Each camera (3) is arranged to image the volume. The apparatus (1, 5, 6) is configured to control the two or more colour displays (2) and the one or more cameras (3) to illuminate the volume with each of two or more illumination conditions. The apparatus (1, 5, 6) is also configured to obtain two or more sets of images. Each set of images is obtained during illumination of the volume with one or more corresponding illumination conditions. The two or more sets of images include sufficient information for calculation of a reflectance map and a photometric normal map of an object or subject (4) positioned within the volume. When viewed from the volume, the apparatus (1, 5, 6) only provides direct illumination of the volume from angles within a zone of a hemisphere. The zone is less than a hemisphere and corresponds to a first range (Δα) of latitudinal angles and a second range (Δβ) of longitudinal angles. Each of the first (Δα) and second ranges (Δβ) is no more than 17π/18.

AUTOMATED DETECTION OF CHEMICAL COMPONENT OF MOVING OBJECT

Image data is obtained that indicates an extent to which one or more objects reflect, scatter, or absorb light at each of multiple wavelength bands, where the image data was collected while a conveyor belt was moving the object(s). The image data is preprocessed by performing an analysis across frequencies and/or performing an analysis across a representation of a spatial dimension. A set of feature values is generated using the image preprocessed image data. A machine-learning model generates an output using to the feature values. A prediction of an identity of a chemical in the one or more objects or a level of one or more chemicals in the object(s) is generated using the output. Data is output indicating the prediction of the identity of the chemical in the object(s) or the level of the one or more chemicals in at least one of the one or more objects.
