  • Patent number: 11887283
    Abstract: Devices, methods, and non-transitory program storage devices are disclosed herein to provide for improved perspective distortion correction for wide field of view (FOV) video image streams. The techniques disclosed herein may be configured, such that the distortion correction applied to requested region of interest (ROI) portions taken from individual images of the wide FOV video image stream smoothly transitions between applying different distortion correction to ROIs, depending on their respective FOVs. In particular, the techniques disclosed herein may modify the types and/or amounts of perspective distortion correction applied, based on the FOVs of the ROIs, as well as their location within the original wide FOV video image stream. In some cases, additional perspective distortion correction may also be applied to account for tilt in an image capture device as the wide FOV video image stream is being captured and/or the unwanted inclusion of “invalid” pixels from the wide FOV image.

  • Publication number: 20230396883
    Abstract: Devices, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are disclosed herein to repair or mitigate the appearance of unwanted reflection artifacts in captured video image streams. These unwanted reflection artifacts often present themselves as brightly-colored spots, circles, rings, or halos that reflect the shape of a bright light source in the captured image. These artifacts, also referred to herein as “ghosts” or “green ghosts” (due to often having a greenish tint), are typically located in regions of the captured images where there is not actually a bright light source located in the image. In fact, such unwanted reflection artifacts often present themselves on the image sensor across the principal point of the lens from where the actual bright light source in the captured image is located. Such devices, methods and computer readable media may be configured to detect, track, and repair such unwanted reflection artifacts in an intelligent and efficient fashion.
