  • Patent number: 11830222
    Abstract: The present invention proposes a bi-level optimization-based infrared and visible light fusion method, adopts a pair of infrared camera and visible light camera to acquire images, and relates to the construction of a bi-level paradigm infrared and visible light image fusion algorithm, which is an infrared and visible light fusion algorithm using mathematical modeling. Binocular cameras and NVIDIA TX2 are used to construct a high-performance computing platform and to construct a high-performance solving algorithm to obtain a high-quality infrared and visible light fusion image. The system is easy to construct, and the input data can be acquired by using stereo binocular infrared and visible light cameras respectively; the program is simple and easy to implement; and the fusion image is divided into an image domain and a gradient domain for fusion by means of mathematical modeling according to different imaging principles of infrared and visible light cameras.

  • Publication number: 20220224984
    Abstract: A controller and digital media player such as a television equipped with such a controller is disclosed. The controller provides for determining the end time of a program currently being played on the television and then triggering at least one trigger event to occur upon the end of the program currently being played. The controller is in communication with an ACR database, and is capable of determining program end times using ACR matching, EPG data of over-the-air broadcasts, and by the detecting of program end credits. Trigger events may vary, but include shutting the television off, and instructing other smart devices in communication with the controller to initiate various functions (turn on, turn off, open, close, send a message, etc.).
