IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18132558 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an image processing apparatus that can communicate with multiple image sensors.

  • The apparatus can receive additional data from each image sensor, including region information and region image data.
  • The region information includes identification information, position, and size of each region in the captured image.
  • The processing unit of the apparatus can process the region image data based on the region information for each region.
  • The apparatus allows for efficient processing of image data from multiple sensors by associating the region information with the corresponding region image data.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is an image processing apparatus (), comprising: a communicating unit () capable of communicating with each of a plurality of image sensors configured to transmit, in respectively different packets, additional data including region information corresponding to a region set with respect to a captured image for each region and region image data indicating an image for each row corresponding to the region; and a processing unit () configured to process, in association with each region, the region image data acquired from each of the plurality of image sensors based on the region information included in the additional data acquired from each of the plurality of image sensors, wherein the region information includes a part of or all of identification information of the region, information indicating a position of the region, and information indicating a size of the region.
