  • Method for video processing using a buffer
    Patent number: 11818509
    Abstract: A method for processing video comprises storing, at a video data buffer, an input video frame data received from a source, causing the stored video frame data to be output from the video data buffer at an output video frame rate, and varying the output video frame rate based on a comparison of an amount of video frame data stored at the video data buffer to a threshold amount of frame data. The threshold amount of frame data may be based on a target total latency between capture of the input video frame data at the source and display of the stored video frame data output from the video data buffer.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: November 14, 2023

  • Method for video processing using a buffer
    Patent number: 11258989
    Abstract: A system may comprise a video data buffer configured to store input video frame data received from a source; and a video processor logically coupled to the video data buffer, wherein the video processor is configured to cause the stored video frame data to be output from the video data buffer at an output video frame rate, and vary the output video frame rate based on an amount of video frame data stored at the video data buffer.
