Certain embodiments provide an imaging method for a non-line-of-sight object and an electronic device. In certain embodiments, the method includes: detecting a first input operation; and generating first image data in response to the first input operation. The first image data is imaging data of the non-line-of-sight object obtained by fusing second image data and third image data. The first image data includes position information between the non-line-of-sight object and a line-of-sight object. The second image data is imaging data of the line-of-sight object captured by the optical camera. The third image data is imaging data of the non-line-of-sight object captured by the electromagnetic sensor.

A multicamera device includes: a first sensor to detect a first spectrum of external light; a second sensor to detect a second spectrum of the external light; and an optic overlapping with the first and second sensors. The optic includes: a substrate; a first reflective layer on the substrate; and an optical layer between the first sensor and the substrate, the optical layer to transmit the first spectrum of the external light to the first sensor, and reflect the second spectrum of the external light toward the first reflective layer, and the first reflective layer is to reflect the second spectrum of the external light in a direction toward the second sensor.

An imaging apparatus includes a first optical system, a first separation optical system that separates the light transmitted through the first optical system into the first wavelength range light and the second wavelength range light, a second optical system that transmits the first wavelength range light obtained by the first separation optical system, a third optical system that transmits the second wavelength range light obtained by the first separation optical system, a first image sensor that receives the first wavelength range light, a second image sensor that receives the second wavelength range light, and a first light source that emits the first wavelength range light, in which the first optical system emits the first wavelength range light emitted from the first light source to a subject, and transmits subject light including first wavelength range reflected light obtained by reflecting the first wavelength range light by the subject.

An information handling system peripheral camera ensures privacy with a cover that minimizes distance of a camera module to a front opening of the camera housing. For instance, opposing cover members rotate about geared ends that engage to translate rotation between the members, where the members meet over a camera opening to block capture of visual images and move to opposing sides to expose the camera module. In an alternative embodiment, a rotating shutter arrangement selectively covers the camera for security and also covers a microphone to provide security against unauthorized audible access through the camera. Selective covering and exposing of a camera module, infrared camera, microphone and user presence detection sensor support adaptive security at a camera based upon end user context.

A color image inpainting method includes: obtaining a color image of an object to be recognized, the color image including a missing portion where at least part of image information is missing; obtaining an infrared image of the object; identifying the missing portion in the color image; and inpainting the missing portion in the color image identified in the identifying. The inpainting includes inpainting the missing portion by using information which is obtained from the infrared image and corresponds to the missing portion to obtain an inpainted color image of the object.

An image acquisition apparatus includes a first image sensor configured to obtain a first image based on detection of a light of a first wavelength band; a second image sensor configured to obtain a second image based on detection of a light of a second wavelength band that is wider than the first wavelength band; and a processor configured to obtain a third image having a spatial resolution corresponding to the first image and a color gamut corresponding to the second image based on the first image and the second image. The image acquisition apparatus may provide an image with a high spatial resolution and a wide color gamut.

Dual cameras that simultaneously capture RGB and IR images of a scene can be used to remove glare from the RGB image, transformed to a YUV image, by substituting a glare region in the luminance component of the YUV image with the pixel values in a corresponding region of the IR image. Further, color information in the glare region may be adjusted by averaging over or extrapolating from the color information in the surrounding region.

A ground line monitoring system includes a camera mounted in a first automobile vehicle. A waveguide directs a light into the camera having a first in-coupling grating receiving a first light imaging data and passing the first light imaging data as a first frequency of the light and a second in-coupling grating receiving a second light imaging data and passing the second light imaging data as a second frequency of the light. A color filter wheel receives the first frequency of the light and the second frequency of the light. An image sensor of the camera receives the first frequency of the light and the second frequency of the light at different times due to rotation of the color filter wheel. A controller performs a calculation using directions and angles of the first frequency of the light and the second frequency of the light to correct a camera image.

A system, method, and computer program product for generating a digital image is disclosed. In use, a first image and a second image are received from a first image sensor, where the first image sensor detects wavelengths of a visible spectrum. A third image and a fourth image are received from a second image sensor, where the second image sensor detects wavelengths of a non-visible spectrum. Using an image processing subsystem, a resulting image is generated by combining one of the first image or the second image, with one of the third image or the fourth image.

An endoscopic imaging system for use in a light deficient environment includes an imaging device having a tube, one or more image sensors, and a lens assembly including at least one optical elements that corresponds to the one or more image sensors. The endoscopic system includes a display for a user to visualize a scene and an image signal processing controller. The endoscopic system includes a light engine having an illumination source generating one or more pulses of electromagnetic radiation and a lumen transmitting one or more pulses of electromagnetic radiation to a distal tip of an endoscope.
