Publication number: 20250111541Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques to concurrently capture several redundant (e.g., overlapping) video image streams on electronic devices having multiple image capture devices (e.g., on mobile devices having two or more digital video cameras). The techniques described herein advantageously capture at least one “compressed” video image stream, such that the overall multi-video image stream capture process uses significantly less power than capturing each stream independently in an “uncompressed” fashion. These techniques provide an electronic device with the ability to provide a user with more video streams that are of a higher frame rate and/or higher quality for a longer capture time-without exceeding the device's thermal limits.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Inventors: Frederic Cao, Xiaohua Yang, Hao Pan, Giribalan Gopalan

Patent number: 12081769Abstract: A video encoding system in which pixel data is decomposed into frequency bands prior to encoding. The frequency bands for a slice of a frame may be buffered so that complexity statistics may be calculated across the frequency bands prior to encoding. The statistics may then be used by a rate control component in determining quantization parameters for the frequency bands for modulating the rate in the encoder for the current slice. The quantization parameters for the frequency bands may be calculated jointly to optimize the quality of the displayed frames after decoder reconstruction and wavelet synthesis on a receiving device. Information about one or more previously processed frames may be used in combination with the statistics for a current slice in determining the quantization parameters for the current slice.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2022Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Hao Pan, Jim C.
