摘要: An image-capturing device includes: an image sensor that includes an image capturing area where an image of a subject is captured; a setting unit that sets image capturing conditions to be applied to the image-capturing area; a selection unit that selects pixels to be used for interpolation from pixels present in the image-capturing area; and a generation unit that generates an image of the subject captured in the image-capturing area with signals generated through interpolation executed by using signals output from the pixels selected by the selection unit, wherein: the selection unit makes a change in selection of at least some of the pixels to be selected depending upon the image-capturing conditions set by the setting unit.

摘要: A method for calibrating a photodetector array supplying a video stream includes: a determination step, wherein an offset table is determined for each current image of the video stream based on at least two corrections from among the following: a first correction from a comparison of the current image to a corresponding predetermined reference table; a second correction from a calculation of a column error of the current image; and a third correction from a high-pass temporal filtering of the video stream; and a calculation step, wherein a current value of an offset table, equal to a sum between a previous value of the offset table and a weighted sum of at least two corrections, is calculated, with each coefficient of the offset table being associated with a respective photodetector of the array.

摘要: Processing circuitry may be configured to detect an abnormal pixel among a plurality of pixels based on pixel values of the plurality of pixels and one or more reference pixel values corresponding to the plurality of values; generate first encoded data by encoding pixel data of the plurality of pixels based on the pixel values with a first encoder; generate second encoded data by encoding the pixel data based on remaining pixels of the plurality of pixels excluding the detected abnormal pixel with a second encoder; and output the first encoded data or the second encoded data based on detecting the abnormal pixel.

摘要: A blemish detection and characterization system and techniques for an optical imaging device includes determining a ratio of the light intensity of the image lost to the blemish relative to an expected light intensity of the image without the blemish. The system and technique may include receiving an image, transforming an image into a processed image with transformations and filters, as well as determining a relative magnitude of an intensity of a portion of the processed image relative to another area of the image. The system and technique may include taking an action based on the relative magnitude including rejecting a sensor, reworking the sensor, cleaning the sensor, or providing information about the blemish to a system to use in weighing data collected from the sensor.

摘要: A radiation imaging apparatus includes pixels arranged to form pixel rows and pixel columns. The pixels include first pixels and second pixels whose sensitivity to radiation is lower than the first pixels. The apparatus further includes a signal lines arranged to correspond to the pixel columns, a readout circuit configured to read out a signal from the pixels via the signal lines, and a processing unit configured to decide a correction value using signals read out from the second pixels and correct signals read out from the first pixels using the correction value. An internal structure of the readout circuit has a period. The second pixels are arranged such that there are two or more types of remainders of column numbers of pixel columns that include the second pixels divided by the period.

摘要: Embodiments relate to lateral chromatic aberration (LCA) recovery of raw image data generated by image sensors. A chromatic aberration recovery circuit performs chromatic aberration recovery on the raw image data to correct the resulting LCA in the full color images using pre-calculated offset values of a subset of colors of pixels.
