  • Patent number: 11354186
    Abstract: Provided is a circuit device for detecting error on a display image obtained by image processing. The circuit device includes an image acquisition circuit configured to acquire image data, an image processing circuit configured to perform image processing on the image data to obtain a display image, and an index acquisition circuit configured to obtain an index for performing error detection on the display image. The index represents a degree of matching between a foreground image, which is an image of a given region of the display image, and a reference image, which is a reference with respect to the foreground image. The index is obtained based on pixel values of the display image and pixel values of the reference image or based on pixel values of an edge image of the display image and pixel values of an edge image of the reference image.

  • Patent number: 11169872
    Abstract: Provided is a circuit device that can appropriately detect an error in a display image obtained by performing image processing, an electronic apparatus, an error detection method, and the like. A circuit device includes an image acquisition circuit configured to acquire image data, and an index acquisition circuit configured to obtain an index for performing error detection on a display image based on the image data. The index acquisition circuit obtains an index that represents the degree of dissimilarity between a foreground image, which is an image of a given region of the display image, and a background image, of the display image, corresponding to a background of the foreground image. The index is obtained based on pixel values of the display image.

  • Publication number: 20190213071
    Abstract: [Object] A circuit device, an electronic apparatus, and an error detection method capable of accurately detecting an error that a user is likely to erroneously recognize are provided. [Solution] A circuit device 100 includes an image acquisition circuit 130 for acquiring a display image and an error detection circuit 150 for performing error detection on the display image. The error detection circuit 150 calculates a histogram of pixel values of the display image, performs a correlation operation using the histogram, calculates an index indicating a degree of dissimilarity between a foreground image that is an image of a given region in the display image and a background image that corresponds to a background of the foreground image in the display image based on a result of correlation operation, and performs the error detection based on the index.
