Patents by Inventor JIUN-HUEI WU

JIUN-HUEI WU has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20160247285
    Abstract: An image depth processing method includes the following steps. A background image and a foreground image in a reference image are obtained according to a depth image corresponding to the reference image. It is noted that the depth value of the background image is larger than the depth value of the foreground image. Meanwhile, the background image is blurred, and then the foreground image and a local image in the blurred background image are blurred. A simulation image is generated according to the background image and the foreground image after blurring the local image and the foreground image.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 8953899
    Abstract: A method for rendering an image from a light-field camera, which generates a raw light-field image, includes: generating feature data, which includes feature elements associated with position information and obtained based on the raw light-field image and a preset threshold condition; generating a raw focused image from the raw light-field image; obtaining a virtual focus position that is designated on the raw focused image; and refocusing the raw focused image according to the virtual focus position by updating pixel values of pixels of the raw focused image that correspond respectively in position to the feature elements of the feature data, so as to generate a refocused image.
