  • Patent number: 11936877
    Abstract: A video decoder can be configured to determine that a current block in a current picture of the video data is coded in an affine prediction mode; determine one or more control-point motion vectors (CPMVs) for the current block; identify an initial prediction block for the current block in a reference picture using the one or more CPMVs; determine a current template for the current block in the current picture; and determine an initial reference template for the initial prediction block in the reference picture; and perform a motion vector refinement process to determine a modified prediction block based on a comparison of the current template to the initial reference template.

  • Patent number: 11924410
    Abstract: An example device for decoding video data includes one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to: generate an inter-prediction block for a current block of video data; generate an intra-prediction block for the current block of video data; generate a final prediction block for the current block of video data from the inter-prediction block and the intra-prediction block, including performing each of combined inter/intra prediction (CIIP) mode, overlapped block motion compensation (OBMC), and luma mapping with chroma scaling (LMCS) while generating the final prediction block; and decode the current block of video data using the final prediction block. To generate the final prediction block, the processors may perform LMCS on a first inter-prediction sub-block, combine the LMCS-mapped first inter-prediction sub-block with the intra-prediction block using CIIP, and perform OBMC between the first CIIP prediction block and a second inter-prediction sub-block.

  • Publication number: 20130114266
    Abstract: A reflective unit (16, 26, 26a) for using with a light guiding element (14, 24, 24a) is disclosed. The light guiding element (14, 24, 24a) includes a light entrance portion (144, 244) and a light exit portion (148, 248, 248a). The light exit portion (148, 248, 248a) has a first concave portion (1482, 2482, 2482a) dented toward the light entrance portion (144, 244). The reflective unit (16, 26, 26a) includes a fixing member (162, 262, 262a) and a reflective member (164, 264). The fixing member (162, 262, 262a) is arranged around the perimeter of the upper end of the light exit portion (148, 248, 248a). The reflective member (164, 264) is arranged on the fixing member (162, 264, 262a) for covering the first concave portion (1482, 2482, 2482a) and forming a conical-shaped light propagating space (19, 29).

  • Publication number: 20120091894
    Abstract: An LED (Light-Emitting Diode) driving device is electrically connectable with an alternating current (AC) power supply and includes an electronic converter received in the driving device and a first connector, which is formed on an end of the driving device to connect with the AC power supply and in electrical connection with the electronic converter, and a second connector, which is formed on another end of the driving device for connection with an LED lighting module. When the first connector is set in electrical connection with the AC power supply, the above arrangement allows for conversion of electrical current and voltage to those applicable to an LED lighting module within 10 W rating.

  • Publication number: 20120092862
    Abstract: Disclosed is a structure of light-emitting diode (LED) having high color rendering index, including a substrate on which at least one light emission element, at least one red light emission element, and at least one green light emission element are mounted. The light emission element emits blue light that is also applied to excite a fluorescent powder coated outside the light emission element to generate white light, which when mixed with red and green lights from the red and green light emission elements, form a light source of improved color rendering property. With the addition of the red and green light emission elements, the light projecting from the LED structure provides a color performance close to the natural light, allowing for perfect reproduction of the original color of an object and thereby improving conformableness and coordination of human perception without causing any lose of color genuineness of an object.
