A spectrally mosaiced digital image is provided with missing color data imputed for each pixel. Circuitry is provided that is configured to perform at least a portion of the calculations related to demosaicing a high dynamic range image.

Digital image processing and systems incorporating the same

Methods, systems, and media for binary compatible graphics support in mobile operating systems are provided. In some embodiments, binary compatible graphics support can be provided by extending diplomatic functions to perform library-wide prelude and postlude operations in the context of the foreign operating system before and after domestic library usage. In some embodiments, binary compatible graphics support can be provided by using thread impersonation approaches that allow one thread to temporarily take on the persona of another thread to perform some action that may be tread-dependent. In some embodiments, binary compatible graphics support can be provided by using dynamic library replication approaches that load multiple, independent instances of a single library within the same process.

Methods, systems, and media for binary compatible graphics support in mobile operating systems

The present invention relates to improved imaging devices having high dynamic range and to monitoring and automatic control systems incorporating the improved imaging devices.

High dynamic range imaging device

An automatic vehicle equipment control system and methods thereof are provided, the system includes at least one imager configured to acquire a continuous sequence of high dynamic range single frame images, a processor, a color spectral filter array including a plurality of color filters, at least a portion of which are different colors, and pixels of an imager pixel array being in optical communication with substantially one spectral color filter, and a lens, wherein the imager is configured to capture a non-saturated image of nearby oncoming headlamps and at least one of a diffuse lane marking and a distant tail lamp in one image frame of the continuous sequence of high dynamic range single frame images, and the system configured to detect at least one of said highway markings and said tail lamps, and quantify light from the oncoming headlamp from data in the one image frame.

Automatic vehicle equipment monitoring, warning, and control system

Imaging device

Algorithms for improving the quality of images tone mapped using the bilateral filter are presented. The algorithms involve a localized operator applied to the tone mapping compression factor which enhances apparent image contrast in the low dynamic range output of the tone mapping. At least one embodiment of the present invention is related to circuitry configured to perform at least a portion of related calculations.
