Patent number: 11656722Abstract: A method and apparatus for creating an adaptive mosaic pixel-wise virtual Bayer pattern. The method may include receiving a plurality of monochromatic images from an array of imaging elements, creating a reference ordered set at infinity from the plurality of monochromatic images, running a demosaicing process on the reference ordered set, and creating a color image from the demosaiced ordered set. One or more offset artifacts resulting from the demosaicing process may be computed at a distance other than infinity, the ordered set may be modified in accordance with the computed offsets.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Edge 3 TechnologiesInventors: Tarek El Dokor, Joshua King, Roger Hauptman

Patent number: 11398037Abstract: A method and system for segmenting a plurality of images. The method comprises the steps of segmenting the image through a novel clustering technique that is, generating a composite depth map including temporally stable segments of the image as well as segments in subsequent images that have changed. These changes may be determined by determining one or more differences between the temporally stable depth map and segments included in one or more subsequent frames. Thereafter, the portions of the one or more subsequent frames that include segments including changes from their corresponding segments in the temporally stable depth map are processed and are combined with the segments from the temporally stable depth map to compute their associated disparities in one or more subsequent frames. The images may include a pair of stereo images acquired through a stereo camera system at a substantially similar time.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2020Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: Edge 3 TechnologiesInventors: Tarek El Dokor, Joshua King, Jordan Cluster, James Edward Holmes

Patent number: 11212511Abstract: Multiview calibration is essential for accurate three-dimensional computation. However, multiview calibration can not be accurate enough because of the tolerances required in some of the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters that are associated with the calibration process, along with fundamental imperfections that are associated with the manufacturing and assembly process itself. As a result, residual error in calibration is left over, with no known methods to mitigate such errors. Residual error mitigation is presented in this work to address the shortcomings that are associated with calibration of multiview camera systems. Residual error mitigation may be performed inline with a given calibration approach, or may be presented as a secondary processing step that is more application specific. Residual error mitigation aims at modifying the original parameters that have been estimated during an initial calibration process.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2020Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: Edge 3 Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tarek El Dokor, Jordan Cluster, Joshua King, James Holmes, Milind Subhash Gide

Patent number: 10716302Abstract: Disclosed herein is an insect control system that involves injection of hot liquid (e.g. water or other ecologically suitable liquid) into a mound or nest of target insects. The system includes a tank, a heating component, a hose, a pump and an injector component. The system may further include an actuator to control release of hot liquid through the injector component as well as components to keep the operator safe from hot liquid. Typically, the tank will hold a volume of liquid and the system heats the liquid to about 150° F. or more.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2016Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: University of Central Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventor: Joshua King

Patent number: 10721448Abstract: A method, system and computer program are provided that present a real-time approach to Chromaticity maximization to be used in image segmentation. The ambient illuminant in a scene may be first approximated. The input image may then be preprocessed to remove the impact of the illuminant, and approximate an ambient white light source instead. The resultant image is then choma-maximized. The result is an adaptive Chromaticity maximization algorithm capable of adapting to a wide dynamic range of illuminations. A segmentation algorithm is put in place as well that takes advantage of such an approach. This approach also has applications in HDR photography and real-time HDR video.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: Edge 3 Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Tarek El Dokor, Jordan Cluster, Joshua King
