  • Dynamic identification and correction of defective pixels
    Patent number: 8098304
    Abstract: Rather than storing a table within a digital camera or other optical device of defective pixels within its image sensor, defective pixels are dynamically identified by comparing the output values of individual pixels under test with those of neighboring pixels. If the neighbors are all above or below the pixel under test by a defined threshold amount, the output of the pixel under test is replaced with a value calculated from the outputs of neighboring pixels.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 26, 2008
    Date of Patent: January 17, 2012
    Assignee: Zoran Corporation
    Inventors: Victor Pinto, Diana Shaposhnik
