  • Devices for and methods of combining content from multiple frames
    Patent number: 10817996
    Abstract: A method of combining content from multiple frames with overlapping field of views is described. The method comprises identifying corresponding blocks between a first frame and a second frame of an image; and determining whether to replace at least a portion of the first frame with a corresponding portion of the second frame based on whether there is a match between the first frame and the second frame.

  • System and method for blending multiple frames into a single frame
    Patent number: 10805649
    Abstract: A method and device for blending multiple related frames into a single frame to reduce noise is disclosed. A method includes comparing an input frame to a corresponding reference frame in order to determine if at least one object that is in both frames moves in the input frame, and also to determine edge strengths of the at least one object. The method further includes, based on the comparison, determining which regions of the input frame to blend with corresponding regions of the reference frame, which regions of the input frame not to blend with corresponding regions of the reference frame, and which regions of the input frame to partially blend with corresponding regions of the reference frame.

  • Device for and method of enhancing quality of an image
    Patent number: 10055821
    Abstract: A method to enhance quality of an image is described. The method comprises receiving the image; identifying a region of the image having skin; performing motion analysis in the region of the image having skin; and if motion is detected, then controlling blending in the region of the image having skin to avoid blurring of texture in the skin.
