Adam Fenn has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11936982
    Abstract: An image capture device includes a mechanical stabilization system is used in image signal processing. The mechanical image stabilization system has an operating bandwidth and includes a motor to control an orientation of an image sensor. A processing apparatus of the image capture device determines a temperature of the motor and adjusts a cutoff frequency of the operating bandwidth based on the temperature of the motor.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11678054
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for image signal processing. For example, method may include determining a sequence of orientation estimates based on sensor data from one or more motion sensors. The method may include receiving an image from the image sensor. The method may include filtering the sensor data with a pass band matching an operation bandwidth to the sequence of orientation estimates to obtain filtered data. The method may include invoking an electronic image stabilization module to correct the image based on the filtered data to obtain a stabilized image. The method may include storing, displaying, or transmitting an output image based on the stabilized image.

  • Patent number: 11178329
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for image signal processing. For example, methods may include determining a sequence of orientation estimates based on sensor data from one or more motion sensors; based on the sequence of orientation estimates, invoking a mechanical stabilization system to reject motions of an image sensor occurring within a first operating bandwidth with an upper cutoff frequency; receiving an image from the image sensor; based on the sequence of orientation estimates, invoking an electronic image stabilization module to correct the image for rotations of the image sensor occurring within a second operating bandwidth with a lower cutoff frequency to obtain a stabilized image, wherein the lower cutoff frequency is greater than the upper cutoff frequency; and storing, displaying, or transmitting an output image based on the stabilized image.
