Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises a receiver (201) for receiving an image signal which comprises at least an encoded image and a target display reference. The target display reference is indicative of a dynamic range of a target display for which the encoded image is encoded. A dynamic range processor (203) generates an output image by applying a dynamic range transform to the encoded image in response to the target display reference. An output (205) then outputs an output image signal comprising the output image, e.g. to a suitable display. The dynamic range transform may furthermore be performed in response to a display dynamic range indication received from a display. The invention may be used to generate an improved High Dynamic Range (HDR) image from e.g. a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) image, or vice versa.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises a receiver (201) for receiving an image signal comprising an encoded image. Another receiver (1701) receives a data signal from a display (107) where the data signal comprises a data field that comprises a display dynamic range indication of the display (107).

Abstract: In some embodiments, a proximity of a patient to a medical device (e.g., a medication dispensing device in which the patient removes a dose of medication that has been dispensed therefrom) may be determined, and a medical status associated with the patient is determined. Based on the determined proximity and the medical status, an alert, including a triggering element, is generated. The alert includes a first alarm type and a second, different alarm type. Upon activation of the triggering element, the medical device is monitored to confirm initiation and occurrence of a physical action (e.g., dispensing and removal of medication) using the medical device. Based on the monitoring, the medical status associated with the patient is updated. A patient device and/or interface may be utilized for the proximity determination and/or generating the alerts.

Abstract: A video distribution system transfers a formatted video signal (20) having elementary streams representing audiovisual content to be rendered in a selected combination and stream information indicative of selectable elementary streams. The formatted video signal represents extended video having an extended range (HDR) of brightness and/or color. A video device (21) processes input video to provide video processing metadata representing a conversion between standard video and the extended video. The formatted video signal comprises a primary video elementary stream representing standard or extended video, a video processing elementary stream not comprising audiovisual content but comprising video processing metadata representing a conversion between standard and extended video or vice versa, and extended stream information comprising an entry indicative of the video processing elementary stream.

Abstract: Master communication device for a token network. The token network comprises a shared communication medium and at least one further master communication device coupled to the shared communication medium, the token network being arranged to pass frames and to execute a poll for master cycle. The master communication device is restricted in executing a poll for master cycle in specified cases especially if another device executed a poll for master for finding a new master communication device on the token network.

Abstract: A device for processing video information has an input unit (112) for receiving the video information having low dynamic range [LDR] video data and/or high dynamic range [HDR] video data, and a video processor (113) for generating a display signal for display in a LDR display mode or HDR display mode. Graphics data is processed for generating an overlay for overlaying the video data. The input unit receives graphics processing control data comprised in the video information, the graphics processing control data including at least one HDR processing instruction for overlaying the graphics data in the HDR display mode. The video processor is constituted for adapting the processing when overlaying the graphics data in dependence on the specific display mode and the HDR processing instruction. Advantageously the source of the video information is enabled to control the processing of graphics in HDR display mode via the HDR processing instruction.

Abstract: This invention provides a method, proximity check server (203), system (200), and computer program product (207, 208) for determining the level of allowed communication between devices (201, 202) in e.g. a home network. By addition of one or more tamper-resistant devices, so-called proximity check server(s) (203,204), round-trip time measurements to estimate the distance between the devices are performed in order to determine the amount of communication allowed between these devices. In a specific embodiment, a single tamper-resistant proximity server computes the distance between communication devices that are implemented as trusted applications on open platforms.
