A method, apparatus, and computer for enhancing the quality of images that have been subjected to degradation. One example of such degradation occurs as the result of haze in the atmosphere. An enhancement function is derived according to a reference digital image and a degraded version of the reference digital image. The enhancement function is applied to a new digital image to produce an enhanced digital image.

Method and apparatus for enhancing a degraded digital image

A plurality of imagers, each responsive to a different wavelength range of light radiation, share the same optical system of lenses. An optical film on a substrate is used to split the light beam emanating from the shared optical system. The first wavelength range is reflected by the film to a first imager. The second wavelength range is transmitted through the film and the substrate to a second imager.

Method and apparatus for coincident viewing at a plurality of wavelengths

A passive matrix organic light emitting display system includes a plurality of pixels configured for emitting light when energized by one of a plurality of row electrodes and one of a plurality of column electrodes. The display system also comprises a plurality of column drivers configured for energizing the plurality of column electrodes. The display system also comprises a plurality of row drivers configured for energizing the plurality of row electrodes. At least two of the plurality of row drivers are configured to simultaneously energize at least two of the plurality of row of electrodes. A method of displaying information on a passive matrix organic light emitting display system is also disclosed.

Display system

An optical coupler is designed to be utilized with multiple light sources. The optical coupler can include a reflecting mirror, a plurality of coupling rods, and an integrating rod. The reflecting mirror receives light from the light sources and reflects light to the coupling rods. The coupling rods provide a path for the light to the integrating rod.
