Projection lens module of pico projector

Номер: US20120002171A1

Автор: David Tsai, Shin-Gwo Shiue

Принадлежит: Cordic Tech Co Ltd

The projection lens module contains a number of lenses, a stop, a PBS (polarizing beam splitter), and a LCoS (liquid crystal on silicon) panel. The lenses, from outside towards inside, contains a negative first lens, a positive second lens attached to the negative first lens, a negative third lens, a positive fourth lens forming a doublet structure with the negative third lens, and a positive fifth lens. The stop is positioned between the positive second lens and the negative third lens. The PBS is positioned between the positive fifth lens and the LCoS panel, and the positive fifth lens has an area larger than that of the LCoS panel. The LCoS panel is positioned behind the PBS. The projection module is able to overcome the size issue of the projection lens module, to enhance image resolution and to reduce image distortion.

A filter coefficient calculating unit 81 sets as a filter window a range, which contains plural coordinates including an attention coordinate “p” in an initial alpha map, and uses a pixel value Ip at a coordinate of an original image corresponding to a coordinate “p” in the filter window and a pixel value Iq at a coordinate of the original image corresponding to a coordinate “q” in the filter window to calculate a filter coefficient Kq at the coordinate “q” on a coordinate to coordinate basis in the filter window. That is, a filter coefficient set is created, which consists of filter coefficients calculated on a coordinate to coordinate basis in the filter window. A weighted-average filtering unit 83 uses the filter coefficient set to apply a weighted-average filtering operation on each pixel value in the filter window.

A corrector handles second image data, which is obtained when an image processor subjects the first image data to an image process affecting frequency characteristics, and acquires a second integrated value by correcting the first integrated value acquired by the high-frequency integrator in accordance with a change in the frequency characteristics that is brought about by the image process. An encoder calculates, in accordance with the second integrated value acquired by the corrector, a quantization scale for compressing the second image data acquired by the image processor to a predefined number of bytes at once, and compresses the second image data accordingly.

Flat-panel optical projection apparatus

Номер: US20120207434A1

Автор: Timothy Large

Принадлежит: Microsoft Corp

A light guide of the tapered-waveguide type includes an input slab for expanding a projected image between an input end and an output end, and an output slab arranged to receive rays from the said output end, and to emit them at a point on its face that corresponds to the angle at which the ray is received. The input slab and output waveguide are matched so that all rays injected into the input end undergo the same number of reflections before leaving the output surface. With the invention, the input slab is itself tapered slightly towards the output waveguide. This means that input and output waveguides can be made the same length, in the direction of ray travel, and can therefore be folded over each other with no wasted space.

Apparatus, method, and medium storing a program, that reduce playback time differences when joining moving images of different formats

Номер: US20120207450A1

Автор: Araki Matsuda

Принадлежит: Canon Inc

Moving image editing device, method, and storage medium storing a program provide a smart rendering scheme to minimize the variation of playback time, even when editing moving image data that does not match the save format. The format of the moving image-data is compared with the save format. The moving image data is converted into the save format. The moving image data is sequentially joined and saved. A portion or the entirety of the moving image data itself is output if the format of the moving image data matches the save format, or the data encoded into the save format after decoding a portion or the entirety of the moving image data is output if the format of the moving image data does not match the save format. The device repeats sequential joining so that the difference in the playback time with the moving image data is minimized.
