  • Patent number: 10129520
    Abstract: A method and apparatus of displaying a magnified image comprising obtaining an image of a scene using a camera with greater resolution than the display, and capturing the image in the native resolution of the display by either grouping pixels together, or by capturing a smaller region of interest whose pixel resolution matches that of the display. The invention also relates to a method whereby the location of the captured region of interest may be determined by external inputs such as the location of a person's gaze in the displayed unmagnified image, or coordinates from a computer mouse. The invention further relates to a method whereby a modified image can be superimposed on an unmodified image, in order to maintain the peripheral information or context from which the modified region of interest has been captured.

  • Publication number: 20150081051
    Abstract: There is described a method for designing a control software product for integration with a main application of an embedded system adapted to control a power electronic component in a power electronic system, the method comprising: generating software source code comprising a control algorithm being specific to an application of the power electronic component, a power converter load, and an application of the power converter load, the control algorithm comprising at least one control function for determining operation parameters for the power electronic component according to a desired parameter; compiling the software source code, thereby obtaining a compiled file; generating a software interface for interfacing the compiled file with the main application, the software interface file comprising a definition of the at least one control function; and outputting the compiled file and the software interface.
