Abstract: A depth-sensing camera system includes a common sensor configured to record color and infrared data from a target, an infrared illuminant that projects infrared light on the target, and a control logic that switches a mode of operation of the camera between a color mode and an infrared mode. When the camera system is in the infrared mode, the infrared illuminant operates to project the infrared light on the target and when in the color mode, the infrared illuminant is disabled. The camera system also includes a color buffer for storing color chroma and luma values and a depth buffer for storing infrared luma data.

Abstract: In accordance with at least some embodiments, a method for outputting video images is disclosed. The method starts by measuring the ambient light in a scene. When the ambient light in the scene is lower than a threshold, images of the scene are created in the analog domain by combining multiple pixel values from imaging cells in an image sensor. The analog image will have a lower resolution than the native resolution of the image sensor. The images of the scene are converted into the digital domain and up-sampled to match the native resolution of the image sensor. The up-sampled images are used as the outputted video images. When the ambient light in the scene is not lower than a threshold, images of the scene are outputted where each pixel value in the image is created from the pixel value from only one pixel cell in the image sensor.

Abstract: A battery powered computer system determines when the system is not in use by monitoring various events associated with the operation of the system. The system preferably monitors the number of cache read misses and write operations, i.e., the cache hit rate, and reduces the system clock frequency when the cache hit rate rises above a certain level. When the cache hit rate is above a certain level, then it can be assumed that the processor is executing a tight loop, such as when the processor is waiting for a key to be pressed and then the frequency can be reduced without affecting system performance. Alternatively, the apparatus monitors the occurrence of memory page misses, I/O write cycles or other events to determine the level of activity of the computer system.
