  • Patent number: 10129559
    Abstract: A method for compressing images includes identifying a set of image blocks from a plurality of digital images. For each image block from the set, image features of the image block are extracted. The set of image blocks is sorted into an ordered sequence of image blocks based on an average image feature difference between sequentially sorted image blocks. The set of image blocks is compressed into compressed image data based on inter block correlations between image blocks in the ordered sequence.

  • Patent number: 9900512
    Abstract: An apparatus including an image sensor configured to capture an image and optics, wherein the image sensor and optics align along an optical axis; optical image stabilization circuitry configured to determine and apply a target optical adjustment to compensate during capture of an image, for movement of the optical axis as a consequence of detected movement of the apparatus; post-capture image stabilization circuitry configured to process the captured image using a residual optical adjustment to obtain a compensated captured image, wherein the residual optical adjustment depends upon a difference between a measured optical adjustment, achieved during capture of the image, and the determined target optical adjustment.

  • Patent number: 9800735
    Abstract: The user calls to the mobile device with a predetermined pattern. In one embodiment the predetermined pattern is coded on the duration of the unanswered calls and the duration between successive calls. The predetermined pattern may be time coded on the durations of successive calls. After detecting the predetermined pattern the mobile device answers the incoming call. The user may continue by identifying via the voice line, if that is required. The mobile device responds to commands provided via the voice line, for example by providing contact information as synthesized speech.

  • Publication number: 20170069103
    Abstract: A camera has known parameters that affect image distortions. Different shutters or different image sensor scanning procedures lead to the image having parts that are recorded at different moments. An object in motion may be recorded in different positions, which is usually seen as a distortion effect in the image. Detecting the object in the partial images in different positions enables the calculation of the position difference between two moments. As the time difference is known from the camera parameters, several kinematic quantities relating to the object may be calculated. Examples of the kinematic quantities are speed, velocity, angular velocity, acceleration and angular acceleration.

    Abstract: The application concerns a method and a technical equipment for multiframe capturing. In the method a level of motion in a target to be captured is determined (402); capture parameters to be used in multiple frame capture of the target are adapted according to the determined level of motion (405); and the multiple frame capture is performed with the capture parameters (410). The application also concerns an apparatus and computer program.

  • Patent number: 8994838
    Abstract: Determining an amount of motion in a second frame of video with reference to a first frame of video. Adaptively predicting a cropping factor for the second frame in response to the determined amount of motion. The cropping factor specifies a portion of the second frame that is to be excluded from the second frame. The predicted cropping factor is adaptively changed for a successive plurality of frames by buffering the first frame to predict a desired cropping factor for the second frame, wherein the first frame occurs prior to the second frame.
