IMAGE DISTORTION CALIBRATION DEVICE, DISPLAY DEVICE AND DISTORTION CALIBRATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240193813 titled 'IMAGE DISTORTION CALIBRATION DEVICE, DISPLAY DEVICE AND DISTORTION CALIBRATION METHOD
The patent application describes a distortion calibration device that acquires test images and reference images to generate calibration mapping data for multi-channel lenses used in cameras and display panels.
- Image acquisition unit captures test images for each channel of the multi-channel lens and reference images for each channel with respect to the lens and display panel.
- Mapping data generator calculates errors per channel between test images and reference images, generating calibration data to compensate for these errors.
- Calibration data is used to create calibration mapping data based on reference mapping data, improving the accuracy of the images captured by the camera.
Potential Applications: - Camera manufacturing industry for improving image quality - Display panel manufacturing industry for enhancing visual output
Problems Solved: - Correcting distortions in images caused by multi-channel lenses - Ensuring accurate representation of images displayed on screen
Benefits: - Enhanced image quality - Improved accuracy in capturing and displaying images
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Distortion Calibration Device for Camera and Display Panel Manufacturers" This technology can be utilized in the production of high-quality cameras and display panels, catering to industries where image accuracy is crucial, such as photography, videography, and medical imaging.
Prior Art: Prior research may include studies on distortion correction algorithms for cameras and display panels, as well as calibration techniques for multi-channel lenses.
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research may focus on optimizing calibration algorithms for different types of multi-channel lenses and display panels to further enhance image quality and accuracy.
Questions about Distortion Calibration Devices: 1. How does this technology compare to traditional distortion correction methods? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this calibration device in mass production settings?
Original Abstract Submitted
a distortion calibration device includes an image acquisition unit which acquires a plurality of test images generated by capturing an image, which is displayed on a display panel, for each channel of the multi-channel lens by a camera and a plurality of reference images generated for each channel with respect to the multi-channel lens and the display panel, and a mapping data generator which acquires an error per channel between the plurality of test images and the plurality of reference images with respect to each channel and generates calibration data for compensating the error per channel to generate calibration mapping data based on reference mapping data and the calibration data.
