Abstract: A controller controls the readout of an image from iris image pick-up devices for performing image pick-up of an iris of a subject. In the control of the readout of an image from the iris image pick-up devices, the controller sets a region of interest to be treated as a target of the image readout. The controller stores past information, and in the case of performing image processing on the same subject, the controller determines whether or not an eye region of the subject was successfully covered by the region of interest used in the past. In the case of determining that the eye region of the subject was not successfully covered, the controller corrects the readout of an image from the iris image pick-up devices.

Abstract: Described is a system including a display, a display controller, and control logic communicatively coupled to the display. The display controller determines, based on coordinates of a focus point on the display, boundaries of a first image region and a second image region in an output image to be rendered. The focus point is determined through tracking an eye movement of a user viewing the display. The first image region has a higher resolution than the second image region. The display controller is configured to send image data together with control signals to the control logic. The control signals cause the control logic to render the output image on the display using the image data. As part of rendering the second image region, the control logic outputs a shared signal onto signal lines that are coupled to light sources in a group of adjacent rows or columns.
