  • Scanning mirror position determination
    Patent number: 8173947
    Abstract: A scanning projector includes a mirror that scans in two dimensions, at least one of which is sinusoidal. A position sensor provides a position signal that represents an angular displacement of the mirror. The position signal is amplified by an amplifier with time variant characteristics. A beam position determination component compensates for the time variant characteristics of the amplifier.

  • Video System Sampling Phase Determination
    Publication number: 20120069245
    Abstract: A phase for an analog-to-digital converter sampling clock is determined. The analog-to-digital converter samples a video signal to generate pixel values. Differences of successive pixel values are compared to a threshold. The number of times the threshold is exceeded is counted for multiple phase values to create a phase profile. The threshold may be dynamic.
