  • Patent number: 10616596
    Abstract: A method of decoding JVET video includes receiving a bitstream and calculating a final planar prediction in planar mode to predict pixel values for a current coding block. The final planar prediction may rely on using unequal weights applied to each of a horizontal and vertical predictor, where such predictors may be generated by interpolating neighboring pixels for each predicted pixel within a coding block. The computation may be made more accurate by deriving a value for a bottom right neighboring pixel.

  • Publication number: 20200059665
    Abstract: Particular embodiments provide a variable, BitDepth, that may be set at a value based on a number of bits used to represent pixels in pictures of a video. The variable may be used in syntax elements in HEVC, such as the HEVC range extension, but other coding standards may be used. By using the variable, different resolutions for the video may be accommodated during the encoding and decoding process. For example, the number of pixels in the pictures may be represented by 8 bits, 10 bits, 12 bits, or another number of bits depending on the resolution. Using the BitDepth variable in the syntax provides flexibility in the motion estimation and motion compensation process. For example, syntax elements used in the weighted prediction process may take into account different numbers of bits used to represent the pictures.

  • Publication number: 20200045308
    Abstract: A system and method of planar motion vector derivation which, in some embodiments can employ an unequal weighted combination of adjacent motion vectors. In some embodiments, motion vector information associated with a bottom right pixel or block adjacent to a current coding unit can be derived from motion information associated with a top row or top neighboring row of a current coding unit and motion information associated with a left column or left neighboring column of a current coding unit. Weighted or non-weighted combinations of such values can be combined in a planar mode prediction model to derive associated motion information for bottom and/or right adjacent pixels or blocks.

  • Publication number: 20190386075
    Abstract: Disclosed is a naked-eye three-dimensional display device, which is from top to bottom sequentially provided with a first substrate, a light-emitting layer, a second substrate, a first indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode layer, a three-dimensional prism liquid crystal layer, a second ITO electrode layer and a third substrate. One side of the first substrate facing the light-emitting layer is provided with thin film transistors arranged in a matrix form. Since the first ITO electrode layer is disposed directly on the second substrate, a substrate and a transparent photoresist layer are not used. Thus, the weight of the device is reduced, and the display brightness and the alignment accuracy are improved. When liquid crystal prism electrode units of the first ITO electrode layer and display regions of pixel units are configured to overlap with each other, the influence of transmitted light on naked eye 3D display can be avoided and the 3D display effect is improved.
