  • Systems and methods for mapping color data
    Patent number: 9449579
    Abstract: Described herein is a system and method that relates to mapping from one color space on a 3D cube to another, and an addressing method used to represent the data. The system organizes the data to reduce memory storage requirements, by re-using redundant information from different cube corners in a lattice structure without re-storing the same data. The lattice structure may repeat for every cube of interest.
    Type: Grant

  • Methods and device for efficient resampling and resizing of digital images
    Patent number: 9350899
    Abstract: Described are a system and method to determine the initial luma and chroma phase such that the resulting image after chroma upsampling and scaling has zero phase difference between the luma and chroma components. Particularly, the described method may include receiving a subsampled input image having luma and chroma values. The method may then perform a phase computation of the input image to determine scaling parameters such that phase differences between all color components of an output image are zero. The method may then include performing a combined upscaling and upsampling process on the input image using the scaling parameters to generate an upscaled image with no phase difference from the subsampled image.
