  • Facial Image Processing in an Image Capture Device
    Publication number: 20130021490
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments of applying image processing techniques in an image capture device to faces within an image. Faces and/or facial features can be detected within an image. A facial signature can be calculated that corresponds to the face within the image. A facial profile corresponding to the facial signature can reference one or more image processing techniques. The image processing techniques can be applied to the region of the image in which the face is located.

  • Camera Device Systems and Methods
    Publication number: 20130021491
    Abstract: Disclosed are various systems and methods implemented in a camera device. An image sensor is configured to capture image data of a target scene from a lens system and a subject feedback mechanism generates framing feedback associated with the image data that includes information about a current framing of an image associated with the image data. Video capture logic also obtains motion information from motion sensors integrated into the camera device and skip frame capture when motion levels exceed a threshold.
