  • Patent number: 12666162
    Abstract: A method of processing image data includes: receiving image data from a color filter array including N×N same color pixels; converting first pixel data in an N×N array into second pixel data in an (N?L)×(N?M) array, wherein the first pixel data is output from the N×N same color pixels; and generating third pixel data in the N×N array by performing reconstruction on the second pixel data, wherein each of “L” and “M” is a natural number that is greater than or equal to 1 and less than N, and “N” is a natural number that is greater than or equal to 2.

  • Publication number: 20260122369
    Abstract: An imaging device may include an image sensor including a plurality of pixels converting an optical signal into an electrical signal, and an image signal processor (ISP) configured to perform a process for detecting a bad pixel among the plurality of pixels. The image signal processor may list the plurality of pixels based on defect probability of the plurality of pixels respectively being a bad pixel, detect a pixel belonging to a first group in which the defect probability exceeds an outlier reference value among the plurality of pixels, as a first bad pixel, and detect a pixel belonging to a second group, different from the first group, among the plurality of pixels as a second bad pixel using prior information on a probability distribution of the plurality of pixels becoming bad pixels after a certain period of time.

  • Publication number: 20260059185
    Abstract: An image processing system includes an optical lens, a lens driver, an image sensor, and a processor. The processor is configured to, based on a modeled relationship between a disparity and a position of the optical lens for each of a first to a third color channels, and further based on a position of the optical lens at which a sharpness of the third color channel is maximized, determine, for each color channel, a movement distance of the optical lens according to the disparity; determine a disparity value and a weight for each color channel from the image data; and apply the disparity value and the weight to the movement distance of the optical lens for each color channel, to determine a final movement distance of the optical lens. The lens driver is configured to move the optical lens according to the final movement distance.
