Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing low power subpixel rendering are provided. The method includes receiving image data for a first pixel of a captured image, receiving image data for a second pixel of the capture image, determining a first saturation value of the first pixel and a second saturation value of the second pixel, determining a maximum saturation value based on the first saturation value and the second saturation value, and rendering a subpixel value using a one dimensional filter or a unity filter based on the determined maximum saturation value.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for increasing the resolution of an image are provided. The method includes capturing a plurality of frames of an image, determining a reference frame from among the plurality of frames, iteratively determining an offset of each of the plurality of frames to the reference frame until unity scaling is reached, and determining a pixel value for insertion between pixels of the reference frame.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for demosaicing sampled color values are provided. The method includes capturing color information using an RGBW image detector, demosaicing red color values, green color values, and blue color values at subpixels respectively corresponding to red photosites of the image detector, green photosites of the image detector, blue photosites of the image detector, and white photosites of the image detector, and changing one or more of the demosaiced red color value, the demosaiced blue color value, and the demosaiced green color value at a particular subpixel based at least in part on color information sampled at one or more white subpixels corresponding to the white photosites.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for demosaicing sampled color values are provided. The method includes storing image information for a plurality of images, selecting an intended viewpoint that is within a composite of image information across the plurality of images, reconstructing color information for at least one color using image information from the composite of image information across the plurality of images that corresponds to the intended viewpoint.
