Abstract: A hub that receives sensor data streams and then distributes the data streams to the various systems that use the sensor data. A demultiplexer (demux) receives the streams, filters out undesired streams and provides desired streams to the proper multiplexer (mux) or muxes of a series of muxes. Each mux combines received streams and provides an output stream to a respective formatter or output block. The formatter or output block is configured based on the destination of the mux output stream, such as an image signal processor, a processor, memory or external transmission. The output block reformats the received stream to a format appropriate for the recipient and then provides the reformatted stream to that recipient.

Abstract: A frame interpolation method for a video processor includes the steps of: determining whether a first input frame is received following a long-term cadence; generating interpolated frames by applying phase coefficients in a regular phase table corresponding to the long-term cadence when the first input frame is received following the long-term cadence; and generating interpolated frames by applying phase coefficients in a bad edit phase table corresponding to a bad edit cadence when the first input frame is received without following the long-term cadence.

Abstract: Master computing device and method for synchronizing display of a digital content (for example a digital signage content) on the master computing device and on one or more slave computing device. The master device transmits a synchronization request, comprising a digital content identifier for identifying the digital content, to the slave device(s). The master device determines a number of negative responses received from the slave device(s) in response to the synchronization request. Each negative response is indicative of one among the slave device(s) not being capable of displaying the digital content. The master device transmits a new synchronization request to the slave computing device(s) if the number of received negative responses reaches a threshold. The master computing device transmits a display command to the slave device(s) for displaying the digital content on their respective display(s) if the number of received negative responses does not reach the threshold.

Abstract: A vehicle can use an image sensor to both detect objects and determine depth data associated with the environment the vehicle is traversing. The vehicle can capture image data and lidar data using the various sensors. The image data can be provided to a machine-learned model trained to output depth data of an environment. Such models may be trained, for example, by using lidar data and/or three-dimensional map data associated with a region in which training images and/or lidar data were captured as ground truth data. The autonomous vehicle can further process the depth data and generate additional data including localization data, three-dimensional bounding boxes, and relative depth data and use the depth data and/or the additional data to autonomously traverse the environment, provide calibration/validation for vehicle sensors, and the like.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed towards reframing videos from one aspect ratio to another aspect ratio while maintaining visibility of regions of interest. A set of regions of interest are determined in frames in a video with a first aspect ratio. The set of regions of interest can be used to estimate an initial camera path. An optimal camera path is determined by leveraging the identified regions of interest using the initial camera path. Sub crops with a second aspect ratio different from the first aspect ratio of the video are identified. The sub crops are placed as designated using the optimal camera path to generate a cropped video with the second aspect ratio.

Abstract: An endoscopic camera has two or more cameras positioned at a distal end, positioned to provide partially overlapping fields of view. The cameras communicate captured digital images the length of the flexible endoscope, where they may be saved and processed to provide additional imaging features. With partially overlapping images from two or more cameras, image processing can provide panoramic images, super resolution images, and three-dimensional images. One or more of these image modes may also be enhanced to provide a virtualization window that displays a portion of a larger or higher resolution image. The virtualization window displays the selected area of the image, and may be moved or zoomed around the image to provide a virtual endoscope repositioning experience, where the endoscope remains statically positioned but the virtualization window presents a sense of movement and navigation around the surgical area.

In an embodiment, a scanning apparatus comprises a stage, a high-resolution camera, and a lens that provides a field of view, substantially equal in width to a slide width, to the high-resolution camera. The apparatus also comprises a first illumination system for transmission-mode illumination, and a second illumination system for reflection-mode illumination.

The processor(s) identify artifacts in the second macro image, and, based on those artifacts, correct the first macro image to generate a modified first macro image.

A data processing apparatus at a preceding stage receives a digital broadcast signal, processes, of data acquired by a demodulation process of the digital broadcast signal, notification data to be notified to a data processing apparatus at a succeeding stage that performs a process succeeding to the demodulation process, transforms the notification data into a transportable format together with reception data acquired from the digital broadcast signal, and outputs the notification data to the data processing apparatus at the succeeding stage together with the reception data. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a system that includes a demodulation device and a system-on-chip.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods are provided for language-agnostic subtitle drift detection and localization. A method may include extracting audio from video, dividing the audio into overlapping blocks, and determining the probabilities of overlapping portions of the blocks, the probabilities indicating a presence of voice data represented by the audio in the blocks. The method may generate machine blocks using overlapping portions of blocks where voice data is present, and may map the machine blocks to corresponding blocks indicating that subtitles are available for the video. For mapped blocks, the method may include determining features such as when subtitles are available without voice audio, when voice audio is available without subtitles, and when voice audio and subtitles both are available. Using the features, the method may include determining the probability that the video includes subtitle drift, and the method may include analyzing the video to localize where the subtitle drift occurs.
