Abstract: Provided is a recognition method of 3D vein pattern including the following steps. A plurality of first light beams are emitted by a recognition device to a wrist of a user. A plurality of first reflected light beams from the wrist are received by the recognition device to form a first 3D vein pattern of the wrist. Differences between the first 3D vein pattern and a wrist vein pattern of a database are compared to identify an identity or a gesture of the user. A recognition device of 3D vein pattern is also provided.

Abstract: A system and a method for 3D profile measurements using color fringe projection techniques are provided. The system comprises a color fringe pattern, a digital projector, a color photosensitive coupling device, and a processor. When the digital projector projects the color fringe pattern onto an object to generate color projected fringes, the absolute phase of the object can be calculated by using the horizontal displacement of the color projected fringes, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.

Abstract: Provided is a light sensor including a substrate, a dielectric layer, a plurality of pixels, a plurality of spacers, and a plurality of metal interconnects. The dielectric layer is located on the substrate. The pixels are located in the dielectric layer. The spacers are located on the sidewall of openings between adjacent pixels. The metal interconnects are located in the openings and cover the spacers so as to be electrically connected to the corresponding pixels.

Abstract: A color translation method and a color translation apparatus adapted to map a data point from a first color space to a second color space are provided. At least four color axes coordinating with a plurality of first reference points and a plurality of second reference points corresponding to the first reference points are used to divide the first color space and second color space into a plurality of first sub-spaces and a plurality of second sub-spaces. A target first sub-space where the data point is located is found, and then a corresponding target second sub-space is also found. According to a positional relationship between the data point and the first reference points which define the target first sub-space, an interpolation operation is applied to the second reference points which define the target second sub-space so as to obtain a mapped point in the second color space.

Abstract: An image adjusting method is adapted to an image adjusting circuit. The image adjusting method includes following steps. An image signal is received and up-sampled to generate a first up-sampled image signal and a second up-sampled image signal. The first up-sampled image signal includes interpolated pixels and original pixels. Values of the interpolated pixels and the original pixels are detected, and a weight value is outputted according to the detection result. Whether the values of the interpolated pixels are adjusted or not is determined based on the detection result. According to the weight value, the second up-sampled image signal and the adjusted first up-sampled image signal are mixed to output a mixed image signal. An image adjusting circuit is also provided.

Abstract: A de-interlacing method includes the following steps. A de-interlacing pixel datum of a target pixel is obtained according to a current field and multiple correlated fields. A caption region of the current field is defined according to the fields, and a region motion vector and a region confidence are correspondingly obtained. When the target pixel belongs to the caption region, a compensation pixel datum of the target pixel is obtained by motion compensation according to at least a part of the fields and the region motion vector, and the target pixel is judged as a foreground pixel or a background pixel to output a compensation select signal according to the region motion vector and the region confidence. The de-interlacing pixel datum or the compensation pixel datum is outputted as a correlated pixel datum of the target pixel according to the compensation select signal.
