For Mutually Locking Plural Sources Of Synchronizing Signals, E.g., Studios Or Relay Stations (epo) Patents (Class 348/E5.014)
  • Patent number: 11750920
    Abstract: Stereoscopic camera resynchronization in an autonomous vehicle may include: sending, to a first camera out of synchronization with a second camera, a first command to modify a frame rate of the first camera by modifying a padding data setting of the first camera; determining, independent of any determination that the first camera and second camera are resynchronized, an interval for sending, to the first camera, a second command to restore the padding data setting of the first camera; and sending, responsive to the interval occurring, the second command to the first camera.

  • Patent number: 11741632
    Abstract: A system includes an information processing device. The information processing device is configured to acquire an image group from each of a plurality of cameras. The image group includes a plurality of images of an object that moves relative to each of the plurality of cameras. The plurality of images are captured by a corresponding camera at predetermined intervals and having different image capture times. The information processing device is configured to calculate an amount of movement of the object relative to each of the plurality of cameras, based on the image group acquired from each of the plurality of cameras. The information processing device is configured to detect a lag between image capture timings of the plurality of cameras, by using the amount of movement of the object relative to each of the plurality of cameras.

  • Patent number: 11545111
    Abstract: A signal transmission device includes a first master signal conversion circuit and at least one first slave signal conversion circuit. The first master signal conversion circuit is configured to receive first partial data of output data from a data generation unit, convert the first partial data of the output data into a first transmission signal correspondingly, and output a first synchronization signal. The at least one first slave signal conversion circuit is configured to receive at least second partial data of the output data and convert the at least second partial data of the output data into at least one second transmission signal correspondingly, wherein the at least one first slave signal conversion circuit controls a timing of the at least one second transmission signal according to the first synchronization signal.

  • Patent number: 10362550
    Abstract: A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device to perform operations including determining a target playback latency not less than a greater of a first playback latency of a streaming media signal at a first media processor and a second playback latency of the first media signal at a second media processor. The streaming media signal includes a first in-content reference. A coordinated playback time is determined according to the target playback latency. A buffer, when adjusted by a buffer value, causes the first in-content reference to be encountered at a coordinated time during playback by the first media processor, which results in a synchronized playback of the streaming media between the first and second media processors. Other embodiments are disclosed.
