Abstract:
Disclosed is an infrared remote control receiver comprising a photo diode for converting an optical signal to an electrical signal, a semiconductor signal processing device for receiving the electrical from the photo diode, eliminating noise components from the electrical signal output from the photo diode and generating a pulse signal corresponding to a remote control signal transmitted from a remote control transmission device, and a micro computer for receiving the pulse signal from the semiconductor signal processing device and performing a remote control operation instructed by a user of the remote control transmission device by decoding the received pulse signal, wherein the semiconductor signal processing device is fabricated using CMOS devices fabrication processes.
Abstract:
The low power image sensor includes: an image sensing unit which senses light from an object, converts the light into an electric signal, and outputs the electric signal; a comparing unit which receives an electric signal from the image sensor, compares a voltage level of the electric signal with a reference voltage, and outputs an image signal as a 1 bit signal per pixel; and an effective image adjuster which compares bit value distribution of an image signal output from the comparing unit with a preset effective range, and adjusts the reference voltage to output an effective image. Further, an optical pointing device includes: an image sensor which senses light from an object and outputs an image signal; and a motion computing unit which receives the image signal and compares before and after images to calculate a motion vector.
