Publication number: 20130194463Abstract: A black image captured in a light-shielded state is obtained, and the streak intensity is determined for each pixel of the black image from the absolute value of an AC component in a region containing the pixel. An extraction image which extracts streak-like fixed pattern noise in a captured image is generated using a black image obtained by applying, to the obtained black image, the first filter for reducing random noise in the first direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2011Publication date: August 1, 2013Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Hiroshi Ogino, Yuji Koide

Publication number: 20130038762Abstract: A direction in which pixels highly correlated with a signal value of a pixel of interest exist is determined by using both signal values of a plurality of pixels of different colors from the pixel of interest and of a plurality of pixels of the same color as the pixel of interest among a plurality of peripheral pixels of the pixel of interest, and obtains pixel correction values corresponding to the respective directions. Weighted addition of those pixel correction values is performed in accordance with the degree to which the pixel of interest is of an achromatic color, and the pixel correction value for the pixel of interest is thus obtained.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2012Publication date: February 14, 2013Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yoshiaki Honda, Hiroshi Ogino

Publication number: 20130038773Abstract: When determining a direction in which pixels highly correlated with a defective pixel exist, it is determined whether the direction is the horizontal or vertical direction or the oblique direction from signal values of peripheral pixels of the same color as the defective pixel. On the other hand, one of the vertical direction and the horizontal direction and one of a plurality of predetermined oblique directions are determined from signal values of peripheral pixels of different colors from the defective pixel, and one direction is selected as the final direction determination result according to a determination result obtained by using pixels of the same color.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2012Publication date: February 14, 2013Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yoshiaki Honda, Hiroshi Ogino

Publication number: 20120099007Abstract: An image processing apparatus obtains a black image captured in the light-shielded state, and applies a cyclic type filter to each line in a direction parallel to the streak in the black image, reducing random noise in the first direction. The image processing apparatus deletes, from a black image obtained by applying the cyclic type filter, lines in the second direction by the group delay of the cyclic type filter. Further, the image processing apparatus generates an image having a line count corresponding to the group delay by using a final line in the second direction in the image from which lines corresponding to the group delay have been deleted. The image processing apparatus adds the generated image to the image from which lines corresponding to the group delay have been deleted, and outputs the resultant image.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2011Publication date: April 26, 2012Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Hiroshi Ogino, Yuji Koide

Publication number: 20060140448Abstract: The present invention provides a portable image capturing apparatus having also a navigation function while preventing increase in the size and manufacturing cost of the apparatus. As a part for displaying a guide screen of a navigation system, a rear LCD capable of displaying a high-definition image of an image capturing apparatus which can be carried by a user is used. In other words, a part in which a display of a car navigation system is formed can be separated from the car navigation system and used as a digital camera. Therefore, only by connecting the image capturing apparatus to a car navigation system body in a data transmittable/receivable manner without providing most of functions necessary for car navigation for the image capturing apparatus, the car navigation system is formed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2005Publication date: June 29, 2006Inventors: Katsuya Fujii, Atsushi Yamanishi, Hiroshi Ogino, Genzo Ohno
