Abstract: This disclosure relates to the use of variable-pitch light-emitting devices for display applications, including for displays in augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality environments. In particular, it relates to small (e.g., micron-size) light emitting devices (e.g., micro-LEDs) of variable pitch to provide the advantages, e.g., of compactness, manufacturability, color rendition, as well as computational and power savings. Systems and methods for emitting multiple lights by multiple panels where a pitch of one panel is different than pitch(es) of other panels are disclosed. Each panel may comprise a respective array of light emitters. The multiple lights may be combined by a combiner.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and techniques directed to optical image stabilization movement to create a super-resolution image of a scene. The systems and techniques include a user device (102) introducing (502), through an optical image stabilization system (114), movement to one or more components of a camera system (112) of the user device (102). The user device (102) then captures (504) respective and multiple frames (306) of an image of a scene, where the respective and multiple frames (306) of the image of the scene have respective, sub-pixel offsets of the image of the scene across the multiple frames (306) as a result of the introduced movement to the one or more components of the camera system (112). The user device (102) performs (506), based on the respective, sub-pixel offsets of the image of the scene across the respective, multiple frames (306), super-resolution computations and creates (508) the super-resolution image of the scene based on the super-resolution computations.

Abstract: Provided are a damage diagram creation method, a damage diagram creation device, a damage diagram creation system, and a recording medium capable of detecting damage with high accuracy based on a plurality of images acquired by subjecting a subject to split imaging. In a damage diagram creation method, damage of a subject is detected from each image (each image in a state of being not composed) constituting a plurality of images (a plurality of images acquired by subjecting the subject to split imaging), and thus, damage detection performance is not deteriorated due to deterioration of image quality in an overlapping area. Therefore, it is possible to detect damage with high accuracy based on a plurality of images acquired by subjecting the subject to split imaging. Detection results for the respective images can be composed using a composition parameter calculated based on correspondence points between the images.

Abstract: A method and wearable camera for encoding video captured by a wearable camera determines a centre of rotation for an image frame to be encoded. The centre of rotation relates to a rotation of the wearable camera at the time of capturing the video and the image frame comprises multiple groups of pixels. Furthermore, compression levels are set for the multiple groups of pixels of the image frame. The compression levels for the multiple groups of pixels of the image frame are set such that a level of compression increases with a radial distance from the centre of rotation. The image frame is encoded using the compression levels.
