Focal length estimation method and apparatus for construction of panoramic mosaic images

The focal length estimation method and apparatus claimed in this application aligns plural overlapping images with one another for constructing an image mosaic. This is accomplished by computing a planar perspective transformation between each overlapping pair of the images, computing from the planar perspective transformation a focal length of each image of the pair, computing from the focal length of each image a focal length transformation, computing a rotational transformation for each of the pair of images whereby a combination of the rotational transformation and the focal length transformation relates the respective image to a three-dimensional coordinate system. Registration errors between the pair of images are reduced by incrementally deforming the rotational transformation of one of the pair of images. The planar perspective transform is a matrix of warp elements, and the focal length is computed as a function of the warp elements, the function being derivable by constraining a first two rows or the first two columns of the matrix to have the same norm and to be orthogonal. The focal length of one image of a pair of images is found by applying the constraint on the matrix columns, while the focal length of the other image of the pair is found by applying the constraint on the matrix rows

Projection display apparatus

The present invention provides a projection display apparatus realizing improved operability at the time of registration adjustment irrespective of a use situation of the apparatus. In the case where misregistration occurs between primary color lights, video signals for three colors are corrected (registration adjustment is performed) so as to reduce the misregistration in accordance with an input adjustment value. An image inverting process is performed on an input video signal so that the image is inverted in a display screen. By a configuration by the user, the image is properly inverted in the display screen. When the image inverting process is performed, an adjustment value, with a sign different from that in the misregistration direction in a coordinate system where the image is not inverted, is input by an operation on the display screen.

Method for smooth trap suppression of small graphical objects

A method for smooth trapping of thin graphical objects, wherein a thin graphical object has a width dimension which is substantially less than the object's length dimension, includes receiving from a trap generator the location of a trap pixel that should be changed in color; determining the width of the object containing the trap pixel; comparing the width of the object with a trap threshold width; if the size of the object is less than the trap threshold width, reducing the width of the trap region according to a predetermined relationship; and applying a trap correction to the trap pixel according to the reduced trap width. The predetermined relationship may be a linear relationship which reduces the trap width monotonically for object widths less than the trap threshold width. The method may be applied to small objects and small font text objects.
