  • Patent number: 7394493
    Abstract: A Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera and a method for controlling the same. When a photographing command is input from the input unit by operation of user, the controller controls the iris drive unit so as to open and close the iris periodically for a preset time. Also, the control reads electric signals accumulated in the CCD imaging unit according to fields by light incident according to the opening of the iris, and then stores the read CCD data in the memory according to fields. Then, each CCD datum read from the CCD imaging unit is stored in the memory in the raw datum state without addition of an adjacent datum. Next, the controller generates a second odd field and a second even field by adding offset values, according to fields, to each CCD signal of the raw data state stored in the memory, and then forms a still image by combining the second odd field and the second even field.

  • Publication number: 20060012701
    Abstract: Provided are an auto-stabilization method of controlling driving an image pickup device and reading a memory, and a photographing apparatus having the auto-stabilization method. The photographing apparatus includes an image pickup device photographing an optical image of an object focused on an optical surface including an effective pixel area and a reserved pixel area of predetermined size prepared outside the effective pixel area to generate an image signal. An image pickup device driver drives the image pickup device to output an image signal generated in a pixel area greater than the effective pixel area. A signal processor performs predetermined signal processing on the image signal output from the image pickup device. A memory stores the image signal that has undergone the predetermined signal processing in the unit of field. An auto-stabilizer produces an auto-stabilized area using the image signal stored in the memory.

  • Publication number: 20040080635
    Abstract: Disclosed is a CCD camera having a correction function for determining defective CCDs. A CCD camera periodically drives a shutter through a shutter driving unit at a low speed. If light is incident on a CCD module with the driving of the shutter at the low speed, photo-electrically converted signals outputted from individual CCDs are sequentially stored in a memory. The electric signals of the CCDs stored in the memory are read out, amplified by a predetermined level, and compared to a CCD defect threshold level. If the signals from the CCD devices are larger than the CCD defect threshold level, location information of the CCD devices having signals larger than the CCD defect threshold level is stored in the memory. Further, when the captured signals are scanned, average electric signals of adjacent CCD devices are scanned for the electric signals of the CCD devices larger than the threshold level based on the location information stored in the memory.
