Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to generate an object detection representation of a candidate object based on sensor data representing a captured image of an environment surrounding the vehicle. A determination is made as to whether, whether the candidate object is an outlier based on the object detection representation. In response to determining the candidate object is not an outlier, the candidate object is validated as an object, a proximity distance of the object to the vehicle is determined, and the proximity distance of the object is sent as output.

Abstract: An imaging architecture is described for a depth camera mode with mode switching. In one example, an imaging device has a primary camera to capture an image of a scene, a secondary camera to capture an image of the same scene, a third camera to capture an image of a second scene, a processor having a first port coupled to the primary camera to receive images from the primary camera and a second port to receive images, and a multiplexer coupled to the secondary camera and to the third camera to receive the captured images and to alternately couple the secondary camera or the third camera to the second port of the processor.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for dynamic image composition guidance in digital cameras. The dynamic image composition guidance allows users, for example, amateurs or less experienced photographers, to effectively and properly use photographic composition techniques for improving the quality of digitally captured images. A guidance method on a camera device determines a geometric strength point according to an image composition rule for a scene captured on the camera device. A user of the camera device is then guided in real-time while moving the camera device to align an object of the scene with the geometric strength point before recapturing the scene on the camera device. The method includes displaying, with the geometric strength point, changes to the scene including a moving point associated with a focused object on the first image according to movements of the camera device in real-time.
