APPARATUS, CAPTURING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18596083 titled 'APPARATUS, CAPTURING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus that detects objects in images and corrects motion of both the object and the capturing apparatus to improve image quality.
- Detection unit identifies objects in images.
- First obtaining unit gathers motion information of the object.
- Second obtaining unit collects motion information of the capturing apparatus.
- Control unit stabilizes the motion of the object and corrects image blur caused by capturing apparatus motion.
- Determination unit prioritizes either stabilizing the object or correcting image blur based on motion information.
Key Features and Innovation
- Detection of objects in images.
- Correction of motion of objects and capturing apparatus.
- Prioritization of stabilization based on motion information.
Potential Applications
This technology can be used in:
- Photography and videography for improved image quality.
- Surveillance systems for better object tracking.
- Autonomous vehicles for enhanced object detection.
Problems Solved
- Image blur caused by capturing apparatus motion.
- Inaccurate object detection in images.
- Lack of prioritization in stabilization techniques.
Benefits
- Enhanced image quality.
- Improved object tracking.
- Efficient stabilization techniques.
Commercial Applications
- This technology can be applied in the development of:
- Camera systems for professional photographers.
- Security cameras for surveillance purposes.
- Autonomous vehicles for advanced object detection.
Questions about the Technology
How does this technology improve image quality?
This technology improves image quality by correcting motion of both the object and the capturing apparatus, resulting in sharper and clearer images.
What are the potential applications of this technology beyond photography?
This technology can also be used in surveillance systems for better object tracking and in autonomous vehicles for enhanced object detection.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus includes a detection unit that detects an object from an image, a first obtaining unit that obtains motion information indicating a motion of the object, a second obtaining unit that obtains motion information indicating a motion of a capturing apparatus, a control unit that controls first stabilization to correct the motion of the object and second stabilization to correct an image blur caused by the motion of the capturing apparatus, and a determination unit that performs a determination of which one of the first stabilization and the second stabilization has a higher priority based on the motion information about the object, wherein the control unit controls the first stabilization and the second stabilization based on a result of the determination.
