Abstract: An example method includes: receiving an input extended block comprising an input block and input margins, wherein the input block is derived from an image or a video frame, and wherein the input block and the input margins are input to a filter, and wherein the input margins comprise pixels of the image or the video frame; filtering the input extended block to obtain a filtered extended block comprising a filtered block and filtered margins; receiving other blocks, wherein the other blocks are derived from the image or video frame, and wherein at least one pixel of the other blocks overlaps with at least one pixel of the filtered margins of the filtered extended block; and blending the filtered extended block with the other blocks, wherein an operation to blend the filtered extended block with the other blocks is applied to two or more overlapping pixels

Abstract: An electric conductive sensing device includes a front sheet of a sensing pad having several openings. A sensing electrode is a conductive ink electrode aligned with and exposed through each opening. Several first terminals are formed on an insert portion of the sensing pad and are connected to sensing electrodes. Each opening covered by a conductive gel is electrically connected to the corresponding sensing electrode. The insert portion is integrated in a connector. The electric conductive sensing device can be used as electrode patches of ECG devices or electric stimulators. In use, the connector is plugged into the devices to transmit tiny electrical currents to the ECG device from the human skin surface, or to transmit electrical currents generated from the stimulator to the human. The sensing electrodes are formed by conductive ink printing thereby simplifying the manufacturing process and lowering the manufacturing cost compared to conventional soldered structures.
