Abstract: Several embodiments of scalable image processing systems and methods are disclosed herein whereby color management processing of source image data to be displayed on a target display is changed according to varying levels of metadata.

Abstract: A signal identification process as contemplated to facilitate output of signaling based at least in part on metadata transmitted with the signaling. The contemplated processing may include facilitating output of the content according to one of a plurality of output modes depending on the metadata specifying values for a dynamic floating window (DFW) field and a 2K format conversion preference field.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for reducing memory access bandwidth in a graphics processing system based on destination alpha values. The techniques may include retrieving a destination alpha value from a bin buffer, the destination alpha value being generated in response to processing a first pixel associated with a first primitive. The techniques may further include determining, based on the destination alpha value, whether to perform an action that causes one or more texture values for a second pixel to not be retrieved from a texture buffer. In some examples, the action may include discarding the second pixel from a pixel processing pipeline prior to the second pixel arriving at a texture mapping stage of the pixel processing pipeline. The second pixel may be associated with a second primitive different than the first primitive.

Abstract: A system, method and a computer-readable medium for creating texture exemplars from images are provided. The texture exemplars are created by receiving an image containing a plurality of pixels representing a plurality of textures, wherein each texture in the plurality of textures is configured to be selectable by a user, determining a desired texture in the plurality of textures contained within the image and defining a scale of the desired texture, generating a heat mapping of the image, wherein the heat mapping indicates location of the desired texture, generating, based on the heat mapping, a plurality of tiles corresponding to the defined scale of the desired texture, and generating an exemplar of desired texture.

Abstract: For generating a destination image (a left-eye image) from an original image and a height map thereof, the height of the height map of the original image is compared with the height of the height map of the destination image, and if a pixel of the original image is higher, the pixel of the original image is copied to a pixel of the destination image. After the pixel of the original image is copied to the pixel of the destination image, the height of the pixel of the original image is decremented. The pixel of the original image is copied in the rightward direction to pixels of the destination image until the height of the pixel of the original image becomes 0 or until a height of the pixel of the destination image becomes lower than that of the pixel of the original image. The same processes are performed on each pixel of the original image, and thereby the left-eye image is generated.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for color-space selective darkness and lightness improvements. In one aspect, a method accessing multiple pixels that represent a digital image in an RGB color space. The accessed pixels are processed based on a darkness of the digital image resulting in a first set of processed pixels, and separately based on a lightness of the digital image resulting in a second set of processed pixels. Both sets of processed pixels are combined to generate a processed output image.

Abstract: A setting control apparatus includes a setting control part, a special register, and a read-out control part. The setting control part makes stored in a temporary storage part a control value used in a processing circuit, in response to an input of the control value. The special register is electrically connected to the processing circuit and serving as a storage element capable of storing the control value. The read-out control part controls a read-out operation for reading out the control value from the temporary storage part into the special register. The read-out control part performs the read-out operation at a predetermined timing after storing of the control value in the temporary storage part is completed.

Abstract: In an electronic device and its display method, which dissolves a feeling of wrongness given to users in the case where information displayed in the foreground image and its related information is displayed in the background image, thereby making it possible to reduce a burden imposed on users; when a wallpaper display processing is carried out and a background image displayed by a background image display unit (183) is included in information and its related information displayed by an information display unit (182), such as a clock, a date, a radio condition, a remaining battery charge, and the like; an information display suppression unit (184) suppresses display of either the information display by the information display unit (182) or the information display by the background image display unit (183).

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: an image quality improvement processing unit which is supplied with an image signal corresponding to an original image from an image supply device, executes image quality improvement processing to first image data based on the image signal and thus generates second image data; a resolution deciding unit which compares the first image data with the second image data and thus decides resolution of the original image; and a control unit which controls the image quality improvement processing unit according to the resolution of the original image decided by the resolution deciding unit and thus adjusts the image quality improvement processing.

Abstract: A position-bias compensation method, applied to a three-dimensional image interactive system, includes steps of: displaying a three-dimensional image and setting a trigger position in a preset interactive coordinate system according to a default position of a user; obtaining a position-bias of a user's position from the default position; and resetting the trigger position according to the position-bias.
