Mark Noel Gamadia 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).

  • Patent number: 8588600
    Abstract: Methods for automatic focus in a stereographic imaging device that includes two imaging sensor systems are provided. Focus searches are executed on both imaging sensor systems to determine optimal focused lens positions for each. The focus searches may be executed currently or sequentially, and may be at differing lens position granularities. Focal scores and spatial locations, i.e., the locations of focus regions, may be shared between the imaging sensor systems to coordinate the focus searches. Touchscreen coordinates may also be used to coordinate the focus searches.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20120008856
    Abstract: A method for automatic convergence of stereoscopic images is provided that includes receiving a stereoscopic image, selecting a face detected in the stereoscopic image, and shifting at least one of a left image in the stereoscopic image and a right image in the stereoscopic image horizontally, wherein horizontal disparity between the selected face in the left image and the selected face in the right image before the shifting is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20120007819
    Abstract: A method is provided that includes receiving coordinates of a touch point on a touchscreen, wherein the touch point indicates a user-selected convergence point, and converging a stereoscopic image at the user-selected convergence point based on the touch point coordinates.
