  • Patent number: 11272119
    Abstract: High dynamic range imaging includes first image data captured using a first image sensor and a first exposure time, using a rolling shutter such that different lines within the first image data are captured at different times. Two or more instances of second image data are captured using second image sensors and second exposure times that are shorter than the first exposure time. The second image data are captured using a rolling shutter, and overlap at least in part with the first image data. A line of the first image data has a corresponding line in each instance of second image data, and the corresponding instances of second image data are captured at different second capture times. For a line in the first image data, the corresponding line from the instance of second image data is selected to be merged with the line in the first image data.

  • Patent number: 11165998
    Abstract: A method of determining adjustment of an image pipeline setting comprises determining, by a controller, one or more settings for image data processing in the image pipeline; associating the one or more settings with a tag; transmitting the one or more settings to the image pipeline, wherein the tag is transmitted in association with the one or more settings; transmitting, from the image pipeline to the controller, feedback regarding image data processed with the one or more settings, wherein the tag is transmitted in association with the feedback; and determining, based on the received feedback and the one or more settings associated with the tag, an adjustment of the image pipeline setting.

  • Patent number: 10152551
    Abstract: A method performed in a processing unit for determining calibration data to be used when processing data from a sensor unit connected to the processing unit, the method including receiving, from the sensor unit, an identifier which identifies and is calculated based on calibration data stored in the sensor unit, checking if there is an identifier stored in the processing unit identical to the received identifier, where the identifier stored in the processing unit identifies and is calculated based on calibration data stored in the processing unit, if an identical identifier is stored in the processing unit, using the calibration data stored in the processing unit identified by the identical identifier when processing data from the sensor unit, if no identical identifier is stored in the processing unit, requesting the sensor unit to transmit calibration data, and using the requested calibration data when processing data from the sensor unit.

  • Patent number: 9921856
    Abstract: A method performed in a processing unit for finding settings to be used in relation to a sensor unit connected to the processing unit is disclosed. The method comprises inter alia receiving, from the sensor unit, a first identifier identifying a type of the sensor unit, and a second identifier identifying a group of at least one related type of sensor unit. If no settings associated with the first identifier are stored in the processing unit, but settings associated with the second identifier are stored in the processing unit, the processing unit uses the settings associated with the second identifier in relation to the sensor unit.

  • Patent number: 8374782
    Abstract: A method for providing map tiles associated to a route is described. Generally, a route comprising a number of route segments is received. Then, a respective route segment attribute for each of the route segments is determined. Next, associated map tiles for each of the route segments are determined, using said route segment attributes, and finally an indication of the determined map tiles are transmitted to a map tile fetcher.
