Abstract: A method is disclosed for transmitting configuration data to an internetworking device to cause configuration of a network port on the internetworking device. The method comprises generating and causing display, on a computer display device, of a graphical user interface comprising a graphical representation of network ports on the internetworking device and a text area prompting input of current network environment information. Receiving input specifying the network environment. Automatically deriving network configuration values to configure the network port on the internetworking device, the network configuration values being based on the input. Displaying a graphical representation of the network port and the network configuration values corresponding to the network port. In response to input confirming the network configuration values for the network port, transmitting configuration data to the internetworking device to cause configuring of the network port using the network configuration values.

Abstract: A camera module chip-set comprising: a decompressor configured to decompress image data received from a host device connected to the camera module chip-set; and a processor, different to the decompressor, configured to control transmission of the decompressed image data to the connected host device, in order for the decompressed image data to be displayed on a display of the host device.

Abstract: A method and a handheld device for stabilizing an image captured by an optical lens of a micro camera integral with the handheld device, which may, for example, be a mobile phone. Motion sensors sense motion of the device and are used to cause movement of the micro camera to substantially compensate for the sensed movement so as to maintain a steady, focussed image to be displayed by a display on the handheld device or elsewhere, such as a remote display. The micro camera is moved by one or more motion actuators which move the camera in a horizontal plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of the lens of the camera and/or move the camera so as to pivot the lens axis.

Abstract: Fault tolerant process recycling in unified messaging software applications implementing application layer signaling protocols. A manager process redirects incoming calls to available worker processes using a redirect method of the application layer signaling protocols. The redirection occurs independent of the network connection details of each of the worker processes.

Abstract: A mobile camera telephone including a camera module for capturing an image and providing digital data in an RGB format; and an application processor including a CPU for controlling the operation of the telephone and hardware arranged to perform camera image processing on the digital data in RGB format received from the camera module. A method of recording an image using a mobile camera telephone comprising the steps of capturing an image in a first camera component of the mobile camera telephone sending digital data in an RGB format from the first component to a second application processing component of the mobile camera telephone; and, in the application processing component, both image processing the digital data in RGB format to produce an image for viewing and controlling the storage of that image in the telephone.

Abstract: A digital camera system is formed from a host device and a camera module. The host device has a user interface for receiving user input that controls the operation of a connected camera module and a first processor operable in response to user input via the user interface specifying a camera action, to create a request message. The camera module has image capturing means and a second processor operable to decode a request message to control the image capturing means. When the camera module is attached to the host device the first and second processors are connected for communication.

Abstract: A chip-set for a camera module, comprises: a first input interface for receiving data from an image sensor; image processing means for processing data received via the first input interface; and a processor for controlling the image processing means. The processor may process data received via the first input interface in dependence upon data received as a request message via a second input interface. The processor decodes a request message and produces control signals for directly controlling the image processing means and external camera hardware.

Abstract: A method and handheld device for scanning an object and creating a complete image of the object, even under low light conditions. The handheld device contains a camera module and a motion sensor assembly. The handheld device is moved so that the camera module takes a plurality of images of an object. A motion sensor assembly in the handheld device detects motion of the handheld device and movement information from the motion sensor assembly is used to modify each of the plurality of images to remove distortions therein caused by movement of the camera module. The plurality of images are combined to generate a reconstructed image of the object. For taking images under low light conditions, each of the plurality of images are added together to generate a brightened image.

Abstract: A semiconductor package is provided which enables various interconnections between pins at a low cost. In an embodiment of the invention, the semiconductor package has a base substrate and a group of IC's (spacer IC's, routing IC's, and flip chip IC's) stacked on the base substrate in three dimensions. The routing IC is an interposer for wiring between the pins of the chips located above and below the routing IC and enables the integration of passive elements.
