ERROR HANDLING IN A GEOMETRIC CORRECTION ENGINE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18465250 titled 'ERROR HANDLING IN A GEOMETRIC CORRECTION ENGINE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for error handling in a geometric correction engine (GCE). Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The GCE receives configuration parameters that define how it should operate.
  • Based on these parameters, the GCE generates output blocks of an output frame by processing corresponding blocks of an input frame.
  • During this generation process, the GCE detects any run-time errors that occur.
  • When a run-time error is detected, the GCE reports an event that corresponds to the error.

Potential Applications:

  • Geometric correction engines are commonly used in image and video processing applications, such as in projectors or display systems. This method can be applied in these fields to handle errors during the geometric correction process.

Problems Solved:

  • Geometric correction engines often encounter errors during the generation of output frames. This method provides a systematic approach to handle these errors and report them, allowing for better error management and troubleshooting.

Benefits:

  • Improved error handling: The method provides a way to detect and report run-time errors during the generation process, allowing for timely identification and resolution of issues.
  • Enhanced reliability: By effectively handling errors, the method helps ensure that the output frames are accurately generated, leading to improved reliability of the geometric correction engine.
  • Efficient troubleshooting: The reported events corresponding to errors can assist in troubleshooting and diagnosing issues, making it easier to identify and resolve problems in the GCE.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for error handling in a geometric correction engine (GCE) is provided that includes receiving configuration parameters by the GCE, generating, by the GCE in accordance with the configuration parameters, output blocks of an output frame based on corresponding blocks of an input frame, detecting, by the GCE, a run-time error during the generating, and reporting, by the GCE, an event corresponding to the run-time error.
