A user may select an image of a scene captured by a mobile device as a reference image. The mobile device may present the reference image as a translucent background image on a display of the mobile device, and may display a preview image of the scene over the translucent background image so that the user can adjust a position and/or an orientation of the mobile device until the preview image is aligned with the translucent background image. In some aspects, the mobile device may determine a similarity value between the preview image and the translucent background image, and may present the similarity value on the display.

Apparatus and method to correct the angle and location of the camera

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided to automatically adjust the position of image sensors, and generate a multi-view image based on image data captured from the image sensors. For example, an image capture device includes a housing comprising a first housing portion and a second housing portion, with a first sensor coupled to the first housing portion, and a second sensor coupled to the second housing portion. A coupling device, such as a hinge, couples the first housing portion to the second housing portion. The image capture device obtains image data from the first sensor and the second sensor, and determines an object depth based on the obtained image data. The image capture device outputs an adjusted angle based on the object depth, and obtains additional image data from the first and second sensors. The image capture device generates the multi-view image based on the additional image data.

The present disclosure relates to graphics processing. An apparatus of the present disclosure may determine visibility streams corresponding to a target and a set of bins into which the target is divided. The apparatus may select one of a first rendering mode or a second rendering mode for the target based on the first visibility stream and based on the set of second visibility streams. When the first rendering mode is select, the apparatus may configure each of the set of bins into a first subset associated with a first type of rendering pass or a second subset associated with a second type of rendering pass. The apparatus may then render the target based on the selected one of the first rendering mode or the second rendering mode and, if applicable, based on the first rendering pass type or the second rendering pass type.

Methods and apparatus for selection of rendering modes

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for display processing. Aspects of the present disclosure can communicate an image to multiple display panels, where the multiple display panels include a first display panel and a second display panel.

Additionally, aspects of the present disclosure can scale at least one of a first portion of the image or a second portion of the image to at least one of the first display panel and the second display panel. Aspects of the present disclosure can also display at least one of the scaled first portion of the image or the scaled second portion of the image on at least one of the first display panel or the second display panel.

Methods and apparatus for partial display of frame buffers

Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for dynamically switching frame rates without changing a display refresh rate. An example method can include receiving, from a display device associated with a computing device, a set of control signals indicating a display refresh rate implemented by the display device; adjusting a frame rate associated with application data from one or more applications executed on the computing device; synchronizing, based on the set of control signals, the adjusted frame rate with two or more display refresh cycles, each display refresh cycle being based on the display refresh rate; providing, to the display device, a first frame at the adjusted frame rate, the first frame being generated based on the application data; and displaying the first frame at the display device implementing the display refresh rate.

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for display processing. For example, disclosed techniques facilitate regional processing of images for under-display device displays. Aspects of the present disclosure can identify a subsection of a set of frame layers, the identified subsection corresponding to a lower pixel density region, relative to at least one other region, of a display. Aspects of the present disclosure can also blend first pixel data for each frame layer corresponding to the identified subsection to generate second pixel data. Further, aspects of the present disclosure can populate a buffer layer based on the second pixel data. Additionally, aspects of the present disclosure can blend pixel data from the set of frame layers and the buffer layers to generate a blended image. Aspects of the present disclosure can also transmit the blended image for presentment via the display.

Methods and apparatus to facilitate regional processing of images for under-display device displays

This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for reducing gamut mapping luminance loss. A gain value of at least one primary color may be reduced in a native color gamut based on an analog technique (e.g., using a DDIC in a display panel) to provide a reduced color gamut that is smaller than the native color gamut. The reduced color gamut may have a same luminance as the native color gamut. One or more colors included in the native color gamut may be mapped via a digital technique (e.g., using a DPU or other processor) to the reduced color gamut. The mapping may be configured to provide a threshold level of color accuracy in the reduced color gamut.

Method for reducing gamut mapping luminance loss

Devices and methods for reducing a DPU transfer time to compensate for a delayed GPU render time. After completion of rendering a second frame that follows a first frame, a frame processor determines whether the first frame is currently transferring to a display panel or has already been transferred to the display panel. At least one clock is used with a first set of clock speeds when the first frame is determined to be currently transferring and used with a second set of clock speeds when the first frame is determined to have already been transferred, the second set of clock speeds being faster than the first set of clock speeds. After completion of the transfer of the first frame, the second frame is transferred based on the set of clock speeds.

Reduced display processing unit transfer time to compensate for delayed graphics processing unit render time

An example image capture device includes a display configured to display captured images, a camera sensor, the camera sensor being disposed to receive light through at least a portion of the display, memory configured to store captured images, and one or more processors coupled to the camera sensor, the display, and the memory. The one or more processors are configured to receive a signal from a sensor. The one or more processors are configured to determine, based at least in part on the signal, a user interface mode. The user interface mode includes a first mode having a first number of black pixels or a second mode having a second number of black pixels. The first number is greater than the second number. The one or more processors are also configured to receive image data from the camera sensor.

Under-display camera systems and methods

Methods and apparatuses are provided for alignment of hardware and software Vsync signals through filtering out delayed timestamp signals in a hardware timestamp signal used to generate the software Vsync. The alignment may occur when a display client is operating in a video mode but not a command mode. A compositor or processing unit may receive a hardware Vsync signal from a display using a video mode, generate a hardware timestamp signal based on the hardware Vsync signal, determine a delay for a pulse in the hardware timestamp signal based on a delay for a set of previous frames, determine whether the delay for the pulse is over a threshold, and control rendering and transmission of a frame to the display based on the delay for the pulse being over the threshold. Thus, accurate Vsync signal synchronization may occur.

Software Vsync filtering

In some aspects, the present disclosure provides a method for high dynamic range (HDR) video rotation. The method includes receiving, by a display processor, an indication that a frame rotation animation process for video playback has been initiated, the display processor comprising a display processor pipeline. The method also includes determining whether the video playback is an HDR format or another format. In response to the determination and receiving the indication: bypassing a loading of the frame rotation animation into a first portion of the display processor pipeline, and loading the frame rotation animation into a second portion of the display processor pipeline if the video playback is in an HDR format.

High dynamic range (HDR) video rotation animation

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for generating, in a display panel, a virtual mask layer around a cutout region for a front camera. The front camera may be positioned under the display panel and receive light through the cutout region. The mask layer may hide defects of the cutout region that does not have functional pixels. The disclosed techniques may improve aesthetic appearance of displays having punch-hole cameras with reduced hole sizes and increased production quality conformance rate.

The present disclosure provides methods and apparatus for configuring an image data transfer time for sending image data from a processor to a display panel along a display path. One method includes receiving, by the processor from the display panel, a display panel refresh interval indication indicating a display panel refresh interval of the display panel. The display panel refresh interval of the display panel corresponds to a time duration of a display period of the display panel. The display panel is configured to refresh each display period. The image data transfer time is computed based on the display panel refresh interval. One or more components of the display path are configured to support the computed image data transfer time.
