ANTI-FLICKER MECHANISM FOR A DIGITAL CAMERA - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240305896 titled 'ANTI-FLICKER MECHANISM FOR A DIGITAL CAMERA
The abstract describes an information handling system that includes a camera, a neutral density (ND) filter, and a processor. The camera captures video images for display on a display device, with the processor determining the brightness level of ambient light and the first shutter speed of the camera. The processor then sets a stop level for the ND filter based on the ambient light brightness and first shutter speed, and adjusts the camera to a second shutter speed accordingly.
- Camera captures video images for display on a display device.
- Processor determines brightness level of ambient light and first shutter speed of the camera.
- Processor sets stop level for ND filter based on ambient light brightness and first shutter speed.
- Camera is adjusted to a second shutter speed based on the stop level of the ND filter.
Potential Applications: - Photography and videography equipment - Surveillance systems - Automated lighting systems
Problems Solved: - Ensures optimal exposure in varying lighting conditions - Improves image quality in bright or low light environments
Benefits: - Consistent image quality - Enhanced performance in challenging lighting conditions - Simplified camera operation for users
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Camera System for Optimal Image Capture" This technology can be used in professional photography equipment, security cameras, and other devices that require precise exposure control in changing lighting conditions. The market implications include improved image quality, increased user satisfaction, and potential cost savings in photography and surveillance industries.
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or research on automatic exposure control systems in cameras, adaptive lighting systems, and image processing algorithms for adjusting exposure levels.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be exploring advancements in image sensor technology, machine learning algorithms for automatic exposure adjustment, and the integration of ND filters in camera systems for improved image quality.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the processor determine the appropriate stop level for the ND filter? 2. What are the potential implications of using this technology in surveillance systems?
Original Abstract Submitted
an information handling system includes a camera, a neutral density (nd) filter, and a processor. the camera captures video images for display on a display device of the information handling system. the processor communicates with the camera. the processor determines a brightness level of an ambient light and a first shutter speed of the camera. the processor sets a stop level for the nd filter based on the brightness level of the ambient light and the first shutter speed. in response to the stop level of the nd filter being set, the processor sets the camera to a second shutter speed.
