  • Publication number: 20240116335
    Abstract: An anti-lift sunroof structure is provided, which can be opened and closed on an opening of a vehicle roof. The anti-lift sunroof structure includes a glass panel, a window frame, and a support element. The window frame includes a front frame bar, two side frame bars, and a rear frame bar. Two ends of each side frame bar are respectively connected to the front frame bar and the rear frame bar to form a mounting groove for installation of the glass panel. The support element is arranged corresponding to the front frame bar and includes a stop plate extended away from the rear frame bar. When the anti-lift sunroof structure is in a close position, the stop plate is located under the vehicle roof. Accordingly, sealing capability is prevented from being affected by excessive outward suction from a pressure difference when the vehicle is running at high speed.

  • Publication number: 20240107078
    Abstract: Methods, articles, and systems of image processing comprise obtaining image data of frames of a video sequence. The method also includes determining multiple reference frames of a current frame in the video sequence. The multiple reference frames each have at least one motion compensated (MC) block of image data. Also, the method then includes generating a weight that factors noise, distortion variance, and dispersion distribution between the same MC block position and the current block. Thereafter, the method includes generating denoised filtered image data comprising applying one of the weights to the image data of the motion compensated (MC) block.

  • Patent number: 11935185
    Abstract: An apparatus for content based anti-aliasing is described herein. The apparatus comprises a detector, corrector, and downscaler. The detector is to detect potential aliased content in an input image, wherein the potentially aliased content occurs at a downscaled version of the input image. The corrector is to apply a correction to a single component of the input image. A downscaler may downscale the corrected input image to an output image according to a scaling factor.

  • Publication number: 20240080472
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for deriving a motion vector at a video decoder. A block-based motion vector may be produced at the video decoder by utilizing motion estimation among available pixels relative to blocks in one or more reference frames. The available pixels could be, for example, spatially neighboring blocks in the sequential scan coding order of a current frame, blocks in a previously decoded frame, or blocks in a downsampled frame in a lower pyramid when layered coding has been used.

  • Publication number: 20240078649
    Abstract: Methods and systems to improve a visual perception of dark scenes in video. An example device includes one or more processors to receive a frame of video segmented into a plurality of sub-regions. A local luminance histogram is generated for each sub-region. A global luminance histogram is generated for the entire frame of video and a global tone mapping curve is generated based on the global luminance histogram. A tone mapping LUT is generated for each sub-region based on the global tone mapping curve and the corresponding local luminance histogram for the sub-region. The frame of video is then modified using the tone mapping LUTs generated for each sub-region and sent to an output device.
