IMAGING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18744644 titled 'IMAGING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation: The imaging apparatus described in the patent application includes an image sensor, an image processor, a storage, and a user interface. The image sensor generates original image data, which is then processed by the image processor using various parameter sets stored in the storage. The user interface allows users to combine different parameter sets to adjust the image and convert color information.
- Adjusts images using predefined parameter sets
- Converts color information based on user-defined parameter sets
- User interface allows for customization of image processing
- Enhances the flexibility and control of image editing
- Improves the accuracy and efficiency of color conversion
Potential Applications: 1. Photography editing software 2. Graphic design tools 3. Medical imaging devices 4. Surveillance systems 5. Satellite imaging technology
Problems Solved: 1. Limited control over image processing parameters 2. Inaccurate color conversion in images 3. Lack of customization options in image editing software 4. Time-consuming manual adjustments in image processing 5. Difficulty in achieving desired visual effects in images
Benefits: 1. Enhanced image quality and accuracy 2. Improved color fidelity in image processing 3. Increased efficiency in editing and processing images 4. Customizable options for users to achieve desired effects 5. Streamlined workflow in image editing and color conversion
Commercial Applications: The technology described in the patent application can be utilized in various industries such as photography, graphic design, medical imaging, surveillance, and satellite imaging. It can be integrated into software applications, devices, and systems to enhance image processing capabilities and improve color conversion accuracy.
Questions about Imaging Apparatus: 1. How does the user interface enhance the customization of image processing? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the photography industry?
Original Abstract Submitted
An imaging apparatus includes: an image sensor generating original image data; an image processor performing image processing to generate image data; a storage storing a plurality of first parameter sets and at least one second parameter set; and a user interface receiving a user operation combining a first parameter set with a second parameter set. Each of the plurality of first parameter sets defines the effect in the image processing. Each of the at least one second parameter set defines a correspondence before and after color information in an image is converted. Based on the user operation, the image processor: adjusts an image indicated by the original image data, using the first parameter set included in the combination designated by the user operation; and converts color information included in the image adjusted by the first parameter set, using the second parameter set included in the designated combination.
