Abstract:
Disclosed is an image adjustment apparatus including a receiver which is configured to receive a first input image of an object which is time-synchronously captured and a second input image in which a motion event of the object is sensed time-asynchronously, and an adjuster which is configured to adjust the first input image and the second input image.
Abstract:
In one example embodiment, a lens calibration method includes generating a distorted image by distorting a pattern image that includes at least two reference points separated from a center of the pattern image by different distances. The method further includes generating lens calibration data by comparing the pattern image with the distorted image.

Abstract:
A method for interpolating a color includes interpolating, in a first pixel of a first color, a first pixel value based on pixel values of pixels adjacent to the first pixel, skipping an interpolation on a second pixel of a second color corresponding to the first pixel of the first color; and generating an image based on the interpolated first pixel value and an uninterpolated pixel value of the second pixel.
Abstract:
An image sensor chip includes a first wafer and a second wafer. The first wafer includes an image sensor having a plurality of sub-pixels, each of which is configured to detect at least one photon and output a sub-pixel signal according to a result of the detection. The image processor is configured to process sub-pixel signals for each sub-pixel and generate image data. The first wafer and the second wafer are formed in a wafer stack structure.
