System And Method For Scaling Combined Video And Computer Generated Imagery

View page
US Patent:
6424749, Jul 23, 2002
Filed:
Mar 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/281554
Inventors:
Daniel Qiang Zhu - Columbus NJ
Kevin John Stec - Medford NJ
Assignee:
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. - Osaka
International Classification:
G06T 510
US Classification:
382260, 382275, 382279, 382300, 345615, 345632, 345552, 345441
Abstract:
A system and method for format conversion for use with images containing mixed video and computer generated imagery. A first intermediate scaled image is generated using a first interpolator which has a relatively wide passband and a narrow transition band to the stop band. This interpolator retains high frequency components in the interpolated image but may introduce ringing distortion adjacent to strong edges. The first intermediate scaled image is then processed through an edge extractor which extracts strong edges but ignores any associated ringing distortion. The output signal of the edge detector is a scaled edge image. Next, a second intermediate scaled image is generated using a second interpolator which has a narrower passband and a more gradual transition band. This interpolator produces an image having reduced high frequency components relative to the original image. Then the scaled edge image is added to the second ma intermediate scaled image to produce a converted image having substantially the same high frequency components as the first intermediate scaled image but no ringing distortion components.

Motion Estimation Using Orthogonal Transform-Domain Block Matching

View page
US Patent:
6625216, Sep 23, 2003
Filed:
Jan 27, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/239089
Inventors:
Daniel Q. Zhu - Columbus NJ
Assignee:
Matsushita Electic Industrial Co., Ltd. - Osaka
International Classification:
H04N 712
US Classification:
37524016, 348699
Abstract:
A block matching system matches a motion block in one video image frame to a matching block another video image frame. The system includes a plurality of Hadamard transform processors which transform the motion block and a plurality of trial matching blocks from the other video image frame. The transformed matching blocks are then compared to the transformed motion block, and the transformed matching block which has the smallest difference relative to the transformed motion block is determined. The matching block which corresponds to the determined transformed matching block is selected as the matching block for the motion block. The block matching system may transform motion blocks having different numbers of rows and columns. In one application, the system matches a relatively large motion block in the one frame to a corresponding large matching block in the other frame and determines a displacement between the matching block and the motion block. This displacement is used to guide the selection of trial matching blocks when smaller motion blocks in the one frame are matched to blocks in the other frame.

Method And Apparatus For Improving The Definition Of Black And White Text And Graphics On A Color Matrix Digital Display Device

View page
US Patent:
6681053, Jan 20, 2004
Filed:
Aug 5, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/368631
Inventors:
Daniel Q. Zhu - Columbus NJ
Assignee:
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. - Osaka
International Classification:
G09G 320
US Classification:
382258, 358 307
Abstract:
A digital signal processing (DSP) method to process rendered text in order to achieve up to 300% of the horizontal resolution on any suitable digital display devices such as LCD, PDP and DLP. When the text is rendered, a single picture element (a âpixelâ) of a matrix display screen is actually composed of three âsub-pixelsâ: one red, one green, and one blue (RGB or BGR). Taken together this sub-pixel triplet makes up what has been traditionally thought of as a single pixel. By staggering and processing the sub-pixel elements horizontally, font resolution is effectively increased to the maximum of 300%. There are three processing steps involved. First, the color image is expanded to a gray scale image having triple the number of horizontal pixels as the original image by interleaving the sub-pixels. Next, a black and white text/graphics (TG) detector is deployed to identify the TG of interest in the gray scale image. Then, the, detected TG and only the detected TG is subject to a morphological thinning operation so that the TG approximates fonts (or graphics) that would be generated from a sub-pixel rendering engine.

Video Luminance Chrominance Separation

View page
US Patent:
8248536, Aug 21, 2012
Filed:
Apr 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
12/296357
Inventors:
Dongsheng Wu - Hainesport NJ, US
Robert B. Prozorov - Holland PA, US
Huijuan Liu - Bridgewater NJ, US
Christopher D. Jurado - Blue Bell PA, US
Daniel Zhu - Churchville PA, US
Binning Chen - Newtown PA, US
Assignee:
ATI Technologies, Inc. - Markham
International Classification:
H04N 9/77
H04N 9/78
H04N 9/68
US Classification:
348667, 348645, 348664, 348666
Abstract:
The invention provides techniques for separating luma and chroma signal components in a composite SECAM video signal. During reception, the SECAM video signal is split into luma and chroma output. The amplitude of the chroma carrier is monitored during reception. If the chroma carrier amplitude is greater than a threshold, the value of the chroma output can be reduced. Also, if the chroma carrier amplitude is greater than another threshold, a portion of the chroma carrier can be added to the luma; or the trap band of the band-trap filter for extracting luma from the composite video can be reduced. The respective amount of the reduction in the chroma output and the increase in the luma output are independently determined but both may proportional to the magnitude of the deviation in the chroma carrier amplitude from the different thresholds.

Motion Pixel Distortion Reduction For Digital Display Devices Using Dynamic Programming Coding

View page
US Patent:
6100863, Aug 8, 2000
Filed:
Mar 31, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/052775
Inventors:
Daniel Qiang Zhu - Columbus NJ
Assignee:
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. - Osakam
International Classification:
G09G 336
US Classification:
345 89
Abstract:
A digital display device, such as a plasma display or a digital DMD based light digital project employs a minimum moving pixel distortion (MPD) set of codewords for reducing visually perceived artifacts viewed on a DDD, specially on a plasma display panel (PDP). The plasma display device includes a minimum MPD mapping process, which maps by, for example, a ROM look-up table, received pixel intensity values into intensity levels corresponding to selected ones of the set of codewords. By increasing the number of subfields (or rounding the least significant bits (LSBs) of the intensity pixels), redundant codewords that express pixel intensities can be generated based on the sustain pulse vector with predetermined constraints. An optimal set of codewords can be determined using a dynamic programming method which minimizes a measure of apparent error in a transition from a gray scale produced by one codeword to a gray scale produced by a next successive codeword. The optimal codewords are stored in a ROM lookup table as display data by a plasma display controller.
