20150022643 | Asymmetric Sensor Array for Capturing Images - This document describes techniques and apparatuses for implementing an asymmetric sensor array for capturing images. These techniques and apparatuses enable better resolution, depth of color, or low-light sensitivity than many conventional sensor arrays. | 01-22-2015 |
20150078680 | Grading Images and Video Clips - Techniques apparatuses for grading images and video clips are described. These techniques and apparatuses enable highlights of these graded images and video clips to be more-quickly created, at a high quality, or using fewer resources. | 03-19-2015 |
20150078726 | Sharing Highlight Reels - Techniques and apparatuses for sharing highlight reels are described. This document describes techniques that allow a user to quickly and easily generate a highlight reel. The techniques also enable sharing of these highlight reels, in some cases automatically on creating the highlight reel, such as to persons known to be shown in the highlight reel. | 03-19-2015 |
20150078732 | Highlight Reels - Techniques and apparatuses for generating highlight reels are described. These techniques and apparatuses enable a user to quickly and easily generate a highlight reel to highlight audiovisual media, such as photos and video clips. | 03-19-2015 |
20150082172 | Highlighting Media Through Weighting of People or Contexts - Techniques and apparatuses for highlighting media through weighting of people or contexts are described. This document describes techniques that allow a user to quickly and easily highlight media, such as through generating a highlight reel. The techniques also enable selection of context and person weightings by which to tailor highlight reels. | 03-19-2015 |
20150319217 | Sharing Visual Media - This document describes techniques that allow a user to quickly and easily share visual media. In some cases the techniques share visual media with an interested person automatically and without needing interaction from the user, such as to select the person or the manner in which to share an image. Further, the interested person need not be in the visual media, instead, the interested person can simply be someone that has a previously established interest in a person or object that is within the visual media. | 11-05-2015 |
20160050354 | High Dynamic Range Array Camera - In embodiments, a camera device includes HDR monochromatic image sensors that capture an image as an HDR clear image in monochrome, and the camera device includes HDR color image sensors that capture the image as a Bayer image. The HDR monochromatic image sensors may be implemented as interlaced pixel lines having alternating higher exposure times and lower exposure times, or may be implemented as a checkerboard pixel pattern with white pixels of the checkerboard pixel pattern having an exposure duration and black pixels of the checkerboard pixel pattern having a different exposure duration. The camera device implements image processing algorithms that demosaic the Bayer image to generate an initial color image, and demosaic the HDR clear image to generate a clear image. An image fusion application then produces an enhanced, high-resolution HDR color image based on the initial color image and the clear image. | 02-18-2016 |
20160080626 | Computational Camera Using Fusion of Image Sensors - A camera device includes monochromatic and color image sensors that capture an image as a clear image in monochrome and as a Bayer image. The camera device implements image processing algorithms to produce an enhanced, high-resolution HDR color image. The Bayer image is demosaiced to generate an initial color image, and a disparity map is generated to establish correspondence between pixels of the initial color image and clear image. A mapped color image is generated to map the initial color image onto the clear image. A denoised clear image is applied as a guide image of a guided filter that filters the mapped color image to generate a filtered color image. The filtered color image and the denoised clear image are then fused to produce an enhanced, high-resolution HDR color image, and the disparity map and the mapped color image are updated based on the enhanced, high-resolution HDR color image. | 03-17-2016 |
