  • Publication number: 20230231979
    Abstract: An image processing device includes; an image sensor including pixels arranged in a non-Bayer pattern and configured to generate non-Bayer pattern image data in response to electrical signals generated by the pixels, and an image signal processor configured to determine an indexing value indicating a color of a target pixel among the pixels and directly process the non-Bayer pattern image data in response to the indexing value.

  • Publication number: 20230108491
    Abstract: An image signal processor includes a statistic data generating unit for receiving an image signal from an external device, an image processing unit for receiving the image signal, and a direct memory access (DMA) module connected to the statistic data generating unit and the image processing unit. The statistic data generating unit performs first image pre-processing on the image signal and generates first statistic data based on the image signal subjected to the first image pre-processing. The DMA module stores the first statistic data therein and provides the stored first statistic data to the image processing unit. The image processing unit performs second image pre-processing on the image signal and performs image processing on the image signal based on the first statistic data.

  • Patent number: 10885609
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided that includes a camera, a communication module, a display, and a processor. The processor may be configured to acquire a raw image for one or more external objects by using the camera, recognize the one or more external objects by segmenting the raw image into a plurality of regions corresponding to the one or more external objects, determine a priority for at least a partial region among the plurality of regions based on at least one object of interest among the one or more external objects, transmit data corresponding to at least the partial region to an external electronic device according to the priority so that the external electronic device generates image processing information for at least the partial region, and display the raw image of which at least the partial region is sequentially corrected according to the priority, via the display by using the image processing information.

  • Patent number: 9839120
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a warpage-preventing structure for reducing the warpage of the substrate itself, the warpage which results from the difference of the metal patterns of top and bottom surfaces, and/or the warpage which results from the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of a metal pattern and the substrate, the warpage-preventing structure comprising at least one additional metal layer, wherein the at least one additional metal layer is disposed on at least one surface of the substrate and arranged along an edge of the substrate.

  • Patent number: 8456555
    Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for improving a dynamic range of an image. The method of improving a dynamic range of an image, which is obtained by a sensor unit of an image capture device, includes: creating an input image by using the sensor unit which has a plurality of lines and has different integration times for the individual lines; and creating an interpolated image by performing interpolation filtering on the input image by using neighboring lines of a current line which have different integration times.
