An image capture method for flash photography includes: capturing at least one first image while a strobe device is operating under a first strobe intensity setting for emitting main flash, capturing at least one second image while the strobe device is operating under a second strobe intensity setting different from the first strobe intensity setting, and generating an output image by blending the at least one first image and the at least one second image.

Method and system for blending images captured under different strobe conditions

A method and apparatus for texture image compression in a 3D video coding system are disclosed. Embodiments according to the present invention derive depth information related to a depth map associated with a texture image and then process the texture image based on the depth information derived. The invention can be applied to the encoder side as well as the decoder side. The encoding order or decoding order for the depth maps and the texture images can be based on block-wise interleaving or picture-wise interleaving. One aspect of the present invent is related to partitioning of the texture image based on depth information of the depth map. Another aspect of the present invention is related to motion vector or motion vector predictor processing based on the depth information.

The invention provides an input-output calibration method performed by a processing unit connected to an output device and an input device. The output and the input device correspond to an output and an input device coordinate systems, respectively. The processing unit uses the input device to derive a plurality of lines in the input device coordinate system for M calibration points by sensing a viewer specifying the M calibration points' positions, the plurality of lines are between the M calibration points and the viewer's the predetermined object's different positions, M is a positive integer equal to or larger than three. The processing unit derives the M calibration points' coordinates in the input device coordinate system according to the plurality of lines and uses the M calibration points' coordinates in the output and the input device coordinate systems to derive the relationship between the output and the input device coordinate systems.
