  • Publication number: 20210211626
    Abstract: A Bayer image detection method and device, and a machine readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: obtaining a Bayer image from an image sensor, the Bayer image including at least one Bayer image unit, the Bayer image unit including four pixels; detecting a distribution mode of two pixels with maximum pixel values among the four pixels in the Bayer image unit; and determining a detection result of the Bayer image according to the distribution mode. In this way, it is unnecessary to detect the entire image in some exemplary embodiments, and it can be determined, based on merely one Bayer image unit, whether the Bayer image has a missing row or missing column, thereby achieving the effect of quickly detecting an error in the Bayer image. An error in the Bayer image can be positioned quickly, which helps improve correction efficiency of the Bayer image.

  • Patent number: 10515438
    Abstract: System and method can support an image processing device. The image processing device operates to obtain a first set of characterization values, which represents a first group of pixels that are associated with a denoising pixel in an image. Also, the image processing device can obtain a second set of characterization values, which represents a second group of pixels that are associated with a denoising reference pixel. Furthermore, the image processing device operates to use the first set of characterization values and the second set of characterization values to determine a similarity between the denoising pixel and the denoising reference pixel. Then, the image processing device can calculate a denoised value for the denoising pixel based on the determined similarity between the denoising pixel and the denoising reference pixel.
