  • Patent number: 11902492
    Abstract: An image processing method includes: calculating a rotation matrix to eliminate vertical parallax by converting stereo image captured by stereo camera as if it is image captured by camera rotated about an origin of camera coordinate system, wherein the stereo image includes left image obtained by left camera and right image obtained by right camera; calculating a rotation matrix to adjust the horizontal parallax of the left image and a rotation matrix to adjust the horizontal parallax of the right image; calculating a geometric transformation matrix for the stereo image based on each camera characteristic matrix representing lens characteristics, the rotation matrix for eliminating vertical parallax, and the rotation matrices for adjusting horizontal parallax; and generating new stereo image in which vertical parallax is eliminated and horizontal parallax is adjusted by performing image warping for the stereo image captured by the stereo camera based on the calculated geometric transformation matrix.

  • Patent number: 7744265
    Abstract: A backlight assembly that does not use a bottom chassis is presented. The absence of bottom chassis reduces manufacturing cost, simplifies the assembly process, and facilitates heat dissipation. The backlight assembly includes a lamp, a light guide plate, a mold frame and a securing mold. The lamp unit includes a lamp that generates light and a lamp cover that partially encloses the lamp. The light guide plate receives the light from the lamp unit and guides the light toward the front of the backlight assembly. The mold frame receives the lamp unit and the light guide plate through an open portion. The securing mold is coupled to the lamp unit and combines with the mold frame to secure the first lamp unit. The backlight assembly relies on one mold frame to hold its components together.
