Patent number: 10218925Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for correcting lens distortion. In some feasible implementation manners of the present invention, image data acquired from a lens is corrected in a horizontal direction; the image data corrected in the horizontal direction is written into a dynamic memory; image data in the dynamic memory is corrected in a vertical direction; and lens distortion correction is performed in two steps: in the horizontal direction and in the vertical direction, so that lens distortion correction is implemented at a low cost. The present invention further discloses a corresponding apparatus for correcting lens distortion.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2015Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Shuiping Li, Angang Deng, Cong Xu

Patent number: 9691137Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a radial distortion parameter acquiring method and apparatus. The method includes: randomly selecting a plane as a first plane; making an optical axis of a digital image capture device perpendicular to the first plane, and photographing the first plane to obtain a distorted image of the first plane; acquiring n arcs from the distorted image; and obtaining, by calculation, a radial distortion parameter of the digital image capture device according to the arcs. The apparatus includes: a selecting unit, a photographing unit, an acquiring unit, and a calculating unit. By applying the embodiments of the present invention, only one distorted image needs to be photographed to acquire a radial distortion parameter of a digital image capture device, and the distorted image can be acquired depending on a natural environment.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2014Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xin Du, Shuiping Li

Patent number: 9098895Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an image processing method and device. In the embodiments of the present invention, conversion processing is performed on an input image, which effectively eliminates an impact on image quality from such weather conditions as fog, dust-haze, sand storm and rain where atmospheric transparency is low, and can solve a problem in the prior art that image quality of a captured image or video is poor due to a scattering function of suspended particles in the atmosphere under such weather conditions as fog, dust-haze, sand storm and rain where atmospheric transparency is low, thereby improving contrast, saturation, and sharpness of an image or a video (namely, a multi-frame image). The technical solutions according to the present invention are easy to be implemented and have a low cost.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2013Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shuiping Li
