In a method for operating a household cooking appliance, a camera records a pixel-based image from a cooking chamber of the household cooking appliance. The image is evaluated with exclusion of brightness values of associated pixels thereof.

The invention relates to a method for recognizing a tilting movement of a vehicle having at least one camera installed on the vehicle The method includes recording an image sequence by the camera, determining an optical flow of the image sequence, determining an optical flow to be expected on the grounds of a travel movement of the vehicle and a topography of the underlying surface, and checking of the optical flow of the image sequence and of the expected optical flow for deviations. A vehicle adapted to perform the method is also disclosed.

Imaging-related information such as information regarding the position or orientation of a camera is output in an appropriate manner. A control device according to the present technology includes: a determination unit that determines a usage mode of an imaging device; and a control unit that performs output control of imaging-related information related to the imaging device on the basis of the usage mode determined by the determination unit. Performing the output control of the imaging-related information on the basis of the usage mode of the imaging device makes it possible to perform control so as not to output unnecessary information according to the usage mode of the camera. For example, in a case of a fixed camera that does not move, the imaging-related information as position information of the camera is not output, and in a case of a handy camera that is assumed to move, the imaging-related information as the position information of the camera is output.

A video processing apparatus includes a light irradiation unit, a video acquisition unit, a motion detection unit, and an imaging control unit. The light irradiation unit irradiates a face of an object of shooting with light. The video acquisition unit acquires a video capturing the face of the object of shooting. The motion detection unit detects a speed of motion of at least a portion of the face in the video acquired by the video acquisition unit. The imaging control unit changes an open period of a shutter in the video acquisition unit and a light emission intensity of the light irradiation unit based on the speed detected by the motion detection unit.

A method and an electronic device are provided for editing video using objects of interest included in the video. An electronic device includes a camera, a memory, and a processor. The processor may obtain first video data through the camera, while obtaining the first video data, determine a first object of interest in a plurality of image frames included in the first video data, store, in the memory, second video data generated from the first video data based on the first object of interest, after generating the second video data, receive a user input for determining a second object of interest, different from the first object of interest, in the plurality of the image frames included in the first video data, and in response to receiving the user input, store, in the memory, third video data generated from the first video data based on at least the second object of interest.

A device and a corresponding system are disclosed. The device may comprise a display. Additionally, the device and/or system may be operable to detect stale images. Further, the stale images may be detected in devices and/or systems where incoming images—such as from an imager—are received at a frame rate different than that of the display. A controller may detect the stale images by assigning hash values to images of each frame displayed by the display; storing novel hash values in a memory; and maintaining a counter. The counter may be maintained such that assigning a repeat hash value increments the counter by one and assigning novel hash values resets the counter to zero. Further, the stale images may be determined based, at least in part, on the counter value.
