摘要:
A user provides a graphical representation of a desired image capture device control parameter curve with respect to time. A digital image of the graphical representation of a desired image capture device control parameter curve is captured. The digital image is analyzed by a processor that generates necessary control parameters as defined by the desired image capture device control parameter curve. The processor uses the resulting control parameters to control an image capture device during an image capture session.

A user provides a graphical representation of a desired image post-processing parameter curve. A first digital image of the graphical representation of a desired image post-processing parameter curve is captured. The first digital image is analyzed by an image processor that generates necessary post-processing parameters as defined by the desired image post-processing parameter curve. The image processor uses the resulting post-processing parameters to modify a second digital image.
摘要:
In a method and apparatus for building up a database of known faces, the database of known faces allows the names of the people captured in an image to be added to the meta-data of the image file. The digital imaging device will ask the user to identify unknown people captured in an image.
摘要:
A user provides a plurality of video frames for processing, and selects a cartoon color palette. The color of all selected pixels within all selected video frames is changed to that of the closest match in color within the cartoon color palette and is stored in a memory. Optionally, the user may create a custom cartoon color palette, and may select less than all of the pixels in any given video frame for processing.
摘要:
A method for initializing an imaging device includes executing a startup procedure to enter an image capture mode without loading any string tables for a user interface, detecting a need to display text in the user interface, and loading a string table enabling the text to be displayed when the need is detected.
摘要:
Various embodiments for determining a correct video standard for a display device (e.g., a television monitor) are described. In an embodiment, a test signal in accordance with a video standard is transmitted to the display device. One or more signals transmitted by the display device are analyzed to determine whether the video standard is a correct video standard for the display device.
摘要:
A method of dynamically prioritizing menu items embedded in an electronic device, such as a digital camera, comprising the steps of selecting a menu item from an ordered list of menu items, recording the selected menu item in a record file stored in the electronic device, analyzing the record file to determine the frequency of use for each menu item, and dynamically prioritizing the ordered list by a firmware embedded in the electronic device based on the user's frequency of use to provide a prioritized ordered list, such that frequently used menu item is ranked higher in the prioritized ordered list.
摘要:
A digital system that uses a global positioning system (GPS) and a device to determine direction to help name the files and/or the file location of the images captured by the device can help manage the large number of files created by the device. The digital system containing a photo-sensor, an image storage area, a GPS system, a GPS database, a device to determine direction, and a processor.
摘要:
A user captures an original digital image, which is then selected for post-processing within the image capture device. The user selects a number of images from a defined list of multiples. The image capture device then down-samples the original image and duplicates the down-sampled image to create multiple tiles of the original image. Optionally, the tiled image may then be stored in a memory by the image capture device.
