Abstract: Methods and apparatus for blending unknown pixels in overlapping images. In one embodiment, an action camera captures two hyper-hemispherical fisheye images that are stitched to a 360° panorama. In order to remove exposure differences between the two cameras, the images are pre-processed prior to multiband blending. The pre-processing leverages image information from pixels to make informed guesses about pixels that were not captured. In particular, various pixels with different knowability (e.g., known, unknown, consistent, and conflicting) may be handled differently so as to emphasize/de-emphasize their importance in pre-processing.

Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein include an image capture device, a system, and a method for performing multiscale denoising of an image. An image processor of the image capture device obtains a first image. The first image may be in any format and may include noise artifacts. The image processor decomposes the first image into one or more sub-images. The sub-images may range from a coarse scale to a fine scale. In some implementations, the image processor iteratively denoises each of the one or more sub-images from the coarse scale to the fine scale. The image processor reconstructs the one or more denoised sub-images to produce a denoised image. A memory of the image capture device may be configured to store the denoised image.
