20080219656 | Camera System With Auxiliary Viewfinder - Camera systems and methods for implementing an auxiliary viewfinder are disclosed. An exemplary method may comprise providing a connection on a body of an electronic device for optionally attaching an auxiliary viewfinder. The method may also comprise positioning the auxiliary viewfinder when the auxiliary viewfinder is connected to the body of the electronic device so that a field-of-view for the auxiliary viewfinder is substantially the same as a field-of-view for an onboard lens. | 09-11-2008 |
20080316221 | Down-sampled image display - A memory controller of an apparatus repeatedly retrieves a down-sampled file of a digitally captured image from a non-volatile memory for refresh of a raster display screen. | 12-25-2008 |
20100072935 | Systems And Methods For Controlling Motors - Systems and methods for controlling motors are provided. In this regard, a representative system, among others, includes memory, a motor controller, and a motor. The memory is configured to store sequence information and the motor controller is configured to: receive instructions from a processing device of the system, receive the stored sequence information based on the received instructions, generate at least one drive signal based on the received sequence information, and transmit the at least one drive signal. The motor is configured to be operated based on the transmitted drive signal. | 03-25-2010 |
20150022679 | Fast Motion Detection with GPU - Disclosed are systems and methods for determining when to focus a digital camera to capture a scene. A current frame and a prior frame are differenced to determine a frame difference. The current frame is also differenced with a jittered version of the current frame to produce a jitter difference. If the frame difference exceeds the jitter difference, the scene is deemed to have moved and the camera is autofocused, and otherwise the camera focus is not altered. | 01-22-2015 |
20150085176 | Close Focus with GPU - Disclosed are systems and methods for focusing a digital camera to capture a scene. It is first detected that a change in a scene requires the digital camera to be focused or refocused. The camera focus is automatically scanned from a closest settable distance to farther distances until a first closest object in the scene is detected. Once the first closest object in the scene is detected, the camera focus is set at the distance of the first closest object and a finer scan is executed. In an embodiment, a dynamic movement threshold is calculated and used to determine that the change in scene requires the digital camera to be focused or refocused. | 03-26-2015 |
