  • Publication number: 20160205323
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to method and apparatus for video anti-shaking. There is disclosed a method for use in a video anti-shaking, especially for real-time digital image stabilization, the method comprises: dividing at least one part of a current frame of a video into a plurality of regions (S301); performing a progressive local motion detection for each of the plurality of regions to determine a local motion vector for the region (S302, S303, S304); and determining a global motion vector for the current frame based on the local motion vectors for the plurality of regions (S305). There is also described a corresponding apparatus and user equipment. With embodiments of the present invention, the video anti-shaking processing can be done without any additional hardware. Moreover, embodiments of the present invention may quickly and effectively determine a motion vector and corresponding compensation.

  • Patent number: 9061902
    Abstract: Electrodes, batteries, methods for use and manufacturing are implemented to provide ion-based electrical power sources and related devices. Consistent with one such method, a battery electrode is produced having nanowires of a first material. The electrode is produced using a single growth condition to promote growth of crystalline nanowires on a conductive substrate and of the first material, and promote, by maintaining the growth condition, growth of an amorphous portion that surrounds the crystalline nanowires.

  • Patent number: 8974967
    Abstract: As consistent with various embodiments, an electronic device includes a carbon nanotube film having a plurality of carbon nanotubes. In certain embodiments, a coating, such as an inorganic coating, is formed on a surface of carbon nanotube. The nanotube film supports the device and facilitates electrical conduction therein. The coated nanotube is amenable to implementation with devices such as thin film batteries, a battery separator, thin film solar cells and high-energy Lithium ion batteries.

  • Publication number: 20080095399
    Abstract: A device and method are provided for detecting an occlusion area in stages, which conducts a first stage of detection by detecting the occlusion type of the block based on a determination that the block is a covered area block or an uncovered area block, and conducts a second stage of detection by detecting whether each block detected at the first stage is an object block or a background block, so that an occlusion area can be accurately detected.
