Enhanced color consistency for imaging
Devices, systems, and methods for enhancing color consistency in images are disclosed. A method may include activating, by a device, a camera to capture first image data; while the camera is capturing the first image data, activating of a first light source; receiving the first image data, the first image data having pixels having first color values; identifying first light generated by the first light source while the camera is capturing the first image data; identifying, based on the first image data, second light generated by a second light source; generating, based on the first light, the second light, and a distance between the camera and the vehicle light, second color values for the pixels of the first image data; generating second image data based on the second color values; and presenting the second image data.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR OPTIMISED INTERFEROMETRIC SCATTERING MICROSCOPY
The application discloses a method and apparatus for imaging a sample by interferometric scattering microscopy, the method comprising illuminating a sample with at least one coherent light source, the sample being held at a sample location comprising an interface having a refractive index change, illuminating the sample with illuminating radiation to generate a backpropagating signal from the sample comprising light reflected at the interface and light scattered by the sample, splitting the backpropagating signal into first and second signals, modifying the second signal using a modifying element such that the second signal differs from the first signal, directing the first and second signals onto first and second detectors to generate, respectively, first and second images and comparing, by a processor, the first and second images to determine one or more characteristics of the sample.
IMAGE EXPOSURE DEVICE, IMAGE EXPOSURE METHOD, AND PROGRAM
A CPU provided in an image display device of an image exposure device causes a display unit of the image display device to display a display image for divided exposure, which has a divided gradation value obtained by dividing a gradation value of a recorded image, and sequentially performs a plurality of exposures of the photosensitive recording medium by the display image for divided exposure to perform a divided exposure for recording the recorded image on the photosensitive recording medium.
EXPOSURE CONTROL APPARATUS, IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
An exposure control apparatus accepts a specification of a shutter speed, determines, based on the specified shutter speed, a first accumulation time in which an image sensor accumulates a charge for image capture during a live view, determines, based on the specified shutter speed, a second accumulation time in which the image sensor accumulates a charge for image capture when obtaining a still image; and controls the image sensor to accumulate a charge over the first accumulation time or the second accumulation time. The accumulation time that can be set in the image sensor differs between during the live view and when obtaining a still image, and the first determination unit varies a method of determining the first accumulation time according to whether or not the specified shutter speed is longer than a predetermined shutter speed.
METHOD FOR PROVIDING IMAGE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING THE SAME
An electronic device and method are provided for obtaining an image. An electronic device may include cameras; a distance sensor including a light-emitting part and a light-receiving part; and a processor. The processor may identify a range corresponding to a zoom magnification for obtaining an image, obtain, based on light emitted from the light-emitting part and received by regions of the light-receiving part, signals corresponding to the regions of the light-receiving part, identify first peaks of the signals, obtain, based on the first peaks, first distances, identify whether a distance that is greater than or equal to a first distance corresponding to the identified range exists among the first distances, identify, based on identifying that the distance that is greater than or equal to the first distance exists, whether a maximum value of the first peaks is less than a first value, and determine a camera for obtaining the image among the multiple cameras, based whether the distance that is greater than or equal to the first distance exists and/or whether the maximum value of the one or more first peaks is less than the first value.
Image processing apparatus, image capture apparatus, and control method for adding an effect of a virtual light source to a subject
With respect to a subject included in an image, the illuminating condition by an ambient light source in an environment where the image was captured is estimated, and based on the estimation result, the effect of a virtual light source that was non-existent at the time of image capture is computed. More specifically, the effect of the virtual light source is computed using an illumination direction of the virtual light source and the reflective characteristics of the subject illuminated by the virtual light source, which have been determined based on the estimation result, and an image derived from addition of the effect of the virtual light source is output.
Image pickup device, image capturing system, and movable body
An image pickup device according to an embodiment includes pixels each configured to output an analog signal based on electric charges produced in a photoelectric conversion unit and a control unit configured to control a gain applied to the analog signal to be at least a first gain and a second gain greater than the first gain in accordance with a signal value of the analog signal. Each of the pixels outputs, as the analog signal, a first signal and a second signal based on electric charges produced in the photoelectric conversion unit in a first exposure period and a second exposure period shorter than the first exposure period. The control unit controls the gain applied to the analog signal by selecting one from the first gain and the second gain in accordance with the signal value, for at least one of the first signal and the second signal.
