    Abstract: An autofocus metric approach for focusing video images, automatically, based on images taken during a focus sweep in which a focus cell is repositioned for each of the images is provided. The approach includes, given an edge detected image from the focus sweep and an associated focus cell position in the focus sweep, an autofocus engine dividing the edge detected image into sub-images. For each sub-image, the autofocus engine calculates a normalized edge detection strength and compares it to a threshold. Based on the comparison, the autofocus engine determines whether an edge is present in the sub-image. Based on the determinations of edges in the sub-images, the autofocus engine calculates an autofocus metric associated with the given focus cell position. The autofocus engine provides the autofocus metric together with autofocus metrics associated with other focus cell positions to focus the video images.

    Abstract: Laser light pulsed to illuminate and reflect from at least one object is received at a digital micro-mirror device including an array of mirrors each of which may be selectively controlled to be oriented to either reflect incident light onto a detector or not. The detector outputs a signal representative of an amount of light sensed. By applying M spatial patterns to the mirrors, each in synchronization with one pulse from the laser, and storing sampled signal values from the detector output at each of K times following a pulse from the laser, the collected information may be used to reconstruct K images each using all M spatial patterns and stored sampled signal values corresponding to a respective one of the K times. Each of the K images corresponds to a different range to the digital micro-mirror device, such that the system may be employed as a range finder.
