20230029348 · 2023-01-26 · ·

A device includes an offset subtraction unit; an image sensor which receives, for each of a plurality of bright frames, a respective image signal obtained during a respective exposure time of the image sensor, and transmits the same to the offset subtraction unit, and receives, for a dark frame, a respective image signal obtained during a respective exposure time of the image sensor, and transmits the same to the offset subtraction unit; and a control unit which ensures that the image sensor alternately transmits a number of bright frames and one dark frame to the offset subtraction unit. An amount of light by which the respective image signal for each of the bright frames is generated is larger than an amount of light by which the respective image signal for the dark frame is generated; and the offset subtraction unit obtains an offset and subtracts the offset from a signal.

IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS
20230028598 · 2023-01-26 ·

Disclosed are an image processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer readable storage medium. The method comprises: obtaining a video acquired by a photographing element; superimposing a special-effects animation on the video for display, wherein in the special-effects animation, a first special-effects material is generated at a first position in the video and starts to move from the first position, and when a second position to which the first special-effects material moves in the video is located at a feature point obtained by image edge detection in the video, the first special-effects material stays at the second position.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMAGE CAPTURE

Images subject to panoramic image stitching are analyzed for suitability in three dimensional construction. Effects of translation changes between cameras are mitigated. The dioptric relationship of subject content of the images to the camera set identifies camera translation changes, and eligible camera position inputs, permissible to avoid parallax errors. Images within permissible ranges of each other are stitched to create panoramic images of subject content that a camera cannot fully capture with a single image. Registration plane selection based on translation distances between cameras, and permissible translation changes based on detected subject content depth are disclosed.
