Examples are disclosed that relate to motion blur corrections for time-of-flight (ToF) depth imaging. One example provides a depth camera comprising a ToF image sensor, a logic machine, and a storage machine storing instructions executable by the logic machine to receive depth image data from the ToF image sensor, the depth image data comprising phase data and active brightness (AB) data, determine a first two-dimensional (2D) AB image corresponding to a first modulation frequency, and determine a second 2D AB image corresponding to a second modulation frequency. The instructions are further executable to determine a 2D translation based upon a comparison between the first 2D AB image and the second 2D AB image, determine corrected phase data based on the 2D translation to form corrected phase data, perform phase unwrapping on the corrected phase data to obtain a three-dimensional (3D) depth image, and output the 3D depth image.

Disclosed is a signal processing device and an image display apparatus including the same. The signal processing device and the image display apparatus comprise: a first reduction unit to receive a image signal and reduce noise of the received image signal, and a second reduction unit to perform grayscale amplification based on the image signal from the first reduction unit, wherein the second reduction unit is configured to perform the grayscale amplification so that upper-limit level of grayscale of the image signal from the first reduction unit is greater than upper-limit level of grayscale of an OSD signal. Accordingly, OSD area may be uniformly displayed regardless of ambient luminance.

An electronic device may include a lenticular display. The lenticular display may have a lenticular lens film formed over an array of pixels. The lenticular lenses may be configured to enable stereoscopic viewing of the display such that a viewer perceives three-dimensional images. The display may have a number of independently controllable viewing zones. A eye and/or head tracking system may use a camera to capture images of a viewer of the display. Control circuitry in the electronic device may use the captured images from the eye and/or head tracking system to determine which viewing zones are occupied by the viewer's eyes. The control circuitry may disable or dim viewing zones that are not occupied by the viewer's eyes in order to conserve power. An unoccupied viewing zone and an adjacent, occupied viewing zone may display the same image to increase sharpness in the display.

An apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The memory receives a plurality of frames of a scene captured from a camera array. The processor selects a first frame and a second frame from the plurality of frames. The processor also rectifies and aligns the first frame and the second frame to a reference frame, where a blank region of the second frame has a greater area than a blank region of the first frame. The processor further transforms the first frame to have near-optimal superposition to the second frame. The processor inserts a patch from the transformed first frame into the blank region of the second frame.
