  • Publication number: 20220270231
    Abstract: A circuit device includes an image processing circuit, a CRC calculation circuit, and a determination circuit. Processing target image data obtained by adding known image data to effective image data is input to the image processing circuit, and the image processing circuit executes image processing on the processing target image data. The image processing circuit outputs processed effective image data which is the effective image data subjected to the image processing and processed known image data which is the known image data subjected to the image processing. The CRC calculation circuit obtains a CRC value based on the processed known image data. The determination circuit determines correctness of the image processing by comparing the CRC value with a CRC expected value of the processed known image data.

  • Patent number: 11354186
    Abstract: Provided is a circuit device for detecting error on a display image obtained by image processing. The circuit device includes an image acquisition circuit configured to acquire image data, an image processing circuit configured to perform image processing on the image data to obtain a display image, and an index acquisition circuit configured to obtain an index for performing error detection on the display image. The index represents a degree of matching between a foreground image, which is an image of a given region of the display image, and a reference image, which is a reference with respect to the foreground image. The index is obtained based on pixel values of the display image and pixel values of the reference image or based on pixel values of an edge image of the display image and pixel values of an edge image of the reference image.
