Method and apparatus for processing three-dimensional images

A three-dimensional sense adjusting unit displays three-dimensional images to a user. If a displayed reaches a limit of parallax, the user responds to the three-dimensional sense adjusting unit. According to acquired appropriate parallax information, a parallax control unit generates parallax images to realize the appropriate parallax in the subsequent stereo display. The control of parallaxes is realized by optimally setting camera parameters by going back to three-dimensional data. Functions to realize the appropriate parallax are made into and presented by a library.

Light source apparatus, display apparatus, terminal apparatus, and control method thereof

A light source apparatus has two or more light sources that have different light-emission spectra and that can be controlled independently, and also has light sensors for detecting the quantity of light emitted by the light sources. The light sensors are composed of one type of light sensor that is not provided with a color filter for selecting the wavelength of received light, and the light sensors are sensitive to wavelength ranges that are sufficiently broad to simultaneously receive light in red, green, and blue wavelength ranges. A control circuit controls the two or more light sources to emit light in a time sequential fashion, and compares reference data with the output values of the light sensors to control the quantity of light emitted by the light sources by means of a light source drive circuit. It is thereby possible to reduce the cost and size of a light source apparatus that is capable of correcting changes in hue.

System and method for augmentation of endoscopic surgery

Image processing is used to determine information about the position of a designated object, particularly where the object is difficult to view or locate. In particular, use in endoscopic surgery can determine positional information about an anatomical feature within a patient's body. The positional information is then used to position or reposition a surgical instrument in relation to the designated object. An instrument placed in relation to the designated object is capable of sending information about the object to a computer. Image processing generates images and determines positional information, which can be used as input to robotic devices or rendered to a human user.

Relative phase estimation of harmonic frequency component of a plethysmographic waveform

Detector signals in a pulse oximeter are analyzed to determine a quality of the signals in relation to desired information content or artifact content. The analysis involves performing a transform on a signal to obtain frequency related information and analyzing the frequency related information to obtain a value independent of a shape and waveform of a spectrum of the time-based signal. The analysis involves consideration of the relative phase of the fundamental and harmonic components of a signal. Signals including desired physiological information can be distinguished from artifact affected signals. Based on this analysis, signals can be validated or an appropriate processing algorithm can be selected.

High resolution tracking of mobile assets

A system and method for describing local area geo-reference features and landmarks in providing high resolution asset location information. Geo-image data is integrated to a mapping application and geo-reference data to add more detailed scale levels to the map. The geo-image data includes geo-images and its features to provide more detailed references to the asset and support the larger references of the geo-reference data. To describe a geo-reference landmark, an original landmark representation is selected with a center point and a radius. The asset location points located at the original landmark representation are compiled along with the asset location points generated by events occurring at the landmark to create a point set. The point set replaces the original landmark representation when a prescribed number of points is reached. The asset location points that are within a specified distance from any of the points in the point set are added to the point set to complete the landmark representation. The geo-image data and landmark representation data are combined to provide high resolution asset location information.

Use of time indexed plethysmographic spectral data in assessing saturation estimation validity

Detector signals in a pulse oximeter are analyzed to determine a quality of the signals in relation to desired information content or artifact content. The analysis involves performing a transform on a signal to obtain frequency related information and analyzing the frequency related information to obtain a value independent of a shape and waveform of a spectrum of the time-based signal. In one implementation, the analysis involves the relative amplitude or power measures of corresponding peaks in the red and infrared spectra. For example, the ratio of the amplitude of the fundamental peak in the red spectrum and the amplitude of the fundamental peak in the infrared spectrum may be tracked over time. In another implementation, the analysis involves consideration of the relative phase of the fundamental and harmonic components of a signal. In either case, signals including desired physiological information can be distinguished from artifact affected signals. Based on this analysis, signals can be validated or an appropriate processing algorithm can be selected.

Compositing Windowing System

A set of buffers is made available on a system-wide basis to provide capabilities for robust presentation of windows. The buffers can include a frame buffer, a system off-screen buffer and a compositing buffer.Windows are analyzed to determine and implement the most time- and memory-efficient use of the available buffers to properly display the intended result. In some situations, applications write directly to the frame buffer. Clipping can be used to prevent occluded portions of windows from being displayed. In other situations, some data is written to the off-screen buffer and / or to one or more application buffers, and the compositing buffer is used to perform compositing operations.Thus, a device can provide a wide range of display capabilities, including window compositing, while minimizing costs in terms of memory usage and processing power. Such advantages are of particular use in mobile devices and other systems having limited resources.

Method and apparatus for generating a bird's-eye view image

An obstacle detecting unit detects whether an obstacle exists in an area surrounding a vehicle in the direction a camera installed on the vehicle is pointed. If the obstacle is determined to have a portion at a predetermined height above a road surface with which the vehicle may make initial contact when the vehicle moves toward the obstacle, a virtual projection surface is set to the height of the predicted contact portion and viewpoint conversion processing is performed so as to project pixels of an image captured by the camera onto the virtual projection plane. In this way, the height of the projection plane and the height of the predicted contact portion match each other and the distance between the predicted contact portion and the vehicle is accurately expressed on a bird's-eye view image resulting from the viewpoint conversion.
