Latest Patents
Frankle holds a patent for a "Method and apparatus for lightness imaging." This invention provides mechanisms that detect the large dynamic range of radiant intensities in the natural environment. It employs novel strategies to calculate an approximation of visual properties of objects. The invention represents a scene with an image having a specific dynamic range that is optimal for display media such as photography, television, and printing. Photographs and other images are created using lightness fields produced from multiple comparisons between information associated with different segmental areas of an image field. The comparisons involve different groups of segmental areas, with at least one spatial parameter differing from other groupings. Comparisons are made in succession with an ordered sequence of the spatial parameter, utilizing results from prior comparisons.
