A terahertz wave camera that acquires information on a measurement target includes: a sensor unit in which a plurality of elements having spectral sensitivity to the terahertz wave are arranged; a readout circuit unit that reads out signals from the elements; a first light-shielding portion; and an optical unit. The first light-shielding portion reduces disturbance light to which the readout circuit unit has spectral sensitivity. The optical unit guides a terahertz wave from the measurement target to the sensor unit.

A server in communication with a first device capable of receiving input from a camera attached to the first device, and a second device capable of displaying output, is provided. The server is configured to receive, from the first device, data relating to characteristics of the camera and characteristics of an image obtained by the camera of a screen of the second device; determine a screen pixel length of the screen; and provide instructions to the second device to display on the screen an object at a desired visual angle in response to the data received from the second device and the screen pixel length, while the first device is positioned at an arbitrary distance from the screen.

Embodiments of this disclosure disclose an image processing method and apparatus, a terminal, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining a to-be-processed negative image and initial color values of pixels in the negative image in a first color space; inverting the negative image to obtain inverted image data, inverted color values of pixels in the inverted image data being determined according to the initial color values of the pixels in the negative image; performing value equalization on intermediate color values of the pixels in a range corresponding to a second color space according to the inverted image data, to obtain digital color values of the pixels; and obtaining digital image data of the negative image according to the digital color values of the pixels.

A system for HDR image capture is configurable to perform a split long exposure operation by applying a first set of long exposure shutter operations to configure each sensor pixel of the image sensor array to enable photon detection and applying a second set of long exposure shutter operations to configure each sensor pixel to enable photon detection. A time period intervenes between the first and second sets of long exposure shutter. The system is configurable to perform a short exposure operation by applying a set of short exposure shutter operations to configure each sensor pixel to enable photon detection. The short exposure operation occurs during the time period that intervenes between the first and second sets of long exposure shutter operations. The system is also configurable to generate an image based on the split long exposure operation and the short exposure operation.

A detection device, including a first displacement acquisition unit configured to compare an image of an m-th block included in a first frame captured by an area image sensor using a rolling method with an image captured in the m-th block included in a second frame captured after the first frame to acquire displacement of the image with respect to a main scanning direction of the line, a second displacement acquisition unit configured to compare an image of a p-th block included in the first frame with an image captured in the p-th block included in the second frame to acquire displacement of the image with respect to the main scanning direction, and a difference acquisition unit configured to acquire, as a value corresponding to acceleration of the area image sensor, difference between the displacement acquired in the m-th block and the displacement acquired in the p-th block.

A technique is described herein for using an optical scanning system to visit points in a field along a scanning path. The scanning path includes consecutive passes, corresponding to time-shifted instances of a same scan pattern. The plural passes visit different sets of points within the field, to provide different respective sparse traversals of the field. When motion occurs, the passes evenly distribute the deleterious effects of motion over the field. This produces motion artifacts that resemble blur. The human eye and image processing systems can more effectively handle the presence of blur compared to the kind of motion artifacts produced by a traditional single-pass scanning operation.

Digitization of film, and more particularly film scanning, includes capturing light transmitted through the film so as to acquire a digitized image. This includes a captured frame comprising a digitized image of at least a portion of at least one image frame of a sequence of image frames, and at least a portion of one or more transport perforations. The method can further include determining an image offset corresponding to at least the captured frame on the basis of a comparison between at least one detected edge in the captured image and a corresponding datum location. A signal representing the image offset can be generated to enable alignment of at least the captured frame.
