Patents by Inventor Kai Uwe HAGENBURG

Kai Uwe HAGENBURG 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: 20220294996
    Abstract: An imaging system includes an image sensor and an image signal processor (ISP). The image sensor generates image data including a set of pixel values. The ISP defines a first subset of pixel values from the set of pixel values. The first subset of pixel values corresponds to at least one region of interest. The ISP defines a second subset of pixel values that is complementary to the first subset of pixel values. The ISP generates a first sub-image based on the second subset of pixel values. The ISP processes the first subset of pixel values to generate a second sub-image. Processing the first subset of pixel values includes at least one of changing a color of one or more pixel values from the first subset of pixel values and scaling the first subset of pixel values. The ISP merges the first and second sub-images to generate an output image.

  • Patent number: 11270462
    Abstract: A calibration device for calibrating at least one camera system of a motor vehicle includes at least one calibration element having at least one carrier element and at least one marker element, where the marker element is or can be arranged on the carrier element and at least one connecting element, where the calibration element is or can be arranged on the motor vehicle using the connecting element. A motor vehicle and methods of using the calibration device are also described.

  • Patent number: 11178338
    Abstract: An imaging system for a vehicle for obtaining an anti-flickering super-resolution image includes an image sensor adapted to obtain a sequence of images, and an image processor adapted to receive the sequence of images, compare image information of a most recent image of the sequence of images to a reference image to detect at least one image region of mismatch in the most recent image, remove the detected image region from image information of the most recent image to obtain adjusted image information, and add the adjusted image information of the most recent image to a super-resolution image.
