摘要： An image processing system includes an image sensor circuit. The image sensor circuit is configured to obtain an image using a type of shutter operation in which an exposure pattern of a pixel array is set according to exposure information that changes over time based at least partially on charge accumulated in at least a portion of the pixel array. An image sensor circuit includes a pixel array and one or more circuits. The one or more circuits are configured to update exposure information based at least partially on one or more signals output from the pixel array, and to control an exposure pattern of the pixel array based on the exposure information. A pixel circuit includes a first transistor connected between a photodiode and a sense node, and a second transistor connected between an exposure control signal line and a gate of the first transistor.

摘要： This invention provides a system and method captures a moving image of a scene that can be more readily de-blurred as compared to images captured through the above-referenced and other known methods operating on an equivalent exposure-time interval. Rather than stopping and starting the integration of light measurement during the exposure-time interval, photo-generated current is switched between multiple charge storage sites in accordance with a temporal switching pattern that optimizes the conditioning of the solution to the inverse blur transform. By switching the image intensity signal between storage sites all of the light energy available during the exposure-time interval is transduced to electronic charge and captured to form a temporally decomposed representation of the moving image. As compared to related methods that discard approximately half of the image intensity signal available over an equivalent exposure-time interval, such a temporally decomposed image is a far more complete representation of the moving image and more effectively de-blurred using simple linear de-convolution techniques.
摘要翻译：本发明提供了一种系统和方法，捕获与通过在等效的曝光时间间隔上操作的上述参考和其它已知方法捕获的图像相比，可以更容易地去模糊的场景的运动图像。不是在曝光时间间隔内停止和开始光测量的集成，而是根据将解的调理优化到逆模糊变换的时间切换模式在多个电荷存储位置之间切换光电生成电流。通过在存储位置之间切换图像强度信号，在曝光时间间隔期间可用的所有光能被转换成电荷并被捕获以形成运动图像的时间分解表示。与在相当的曝光时间间隔上丢弃大约一半可用图像强度信号的相关方法相比，这种时间分解的图像是运动图像的更完整的表示，并且使用简单的线性去卷积更有效地去模糊技术

摘要： This invention provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that operates in connection with a machine vision detector or other machine vision system, which provides a highly intuitive and industrial machine-like appearance and layout. The GUI includes a centralized image frame window surrounded by panes having buttons and specific interface components that the user employs in each step of a machine vision system set up and run procedure. One pane allows the user to view and manipulate a recorded filmstrip of image thumbnails taken in a sequence, and provides the filmstrip with specialized highlighting (colors or patterns) that indicate useful information about the underlying images. The programming of logic is performed using a programming window that includes a ladder logic arrangement.

摘要： Disclosed are methods and systems for dynamic feature detection of physical features of objects in the field of view of a sensor. Dynamic feature detection substantially reduces the effects of accidental alignment of physical features with the pixel grid of a digital image by using the relative motion of objects or material in and/or through the field of view to capture and process a plurality of images that correspond to a plurality of alignments. Estimates of the position, weight, and other attributes of a feature are based on an analysis of the appearance of the feature as it moves in the field of view and appears at a plurality of pixel grid alignments. The resulting reliability and accuracy is superior to prior art static feature detection systems and methods.

摘要： The invention provides, in some aspects, devices for image acquisition that use seals (e.g., O-rings) between concentrically disposed portions of an enclosure and an optics assembly (or sub-assemblies thereof) in order to protect image acquisition components from the surrounding environment (and vice versa) while, at the same time, providing adequate friction for both adjusting and locking focus. Such devices include, in one aspect of the invention, an image capture medium (e.g., a CMOS sensor, CCD array, etc.) that is disposed within an enclosure and an optics assembly that is also disposed within that enclosure, rotatably. The optics assembly, which includes at least a lens, can have a cylindrical outer diameter along at least a portion of its length that is received within the enclosure along a length that has a corresponding cylindrical inner diameter. A first seal (e.g., an “O-ring”) is disposed between, and in contact with, the optics assembly and the enclosure, e.g., along these corresponding lengths. That seal permits rotation of the optics assembly for purposes of focusing the lens, while preventing (or reducing a risk of) contamination from the environment (e.g., water, chemicals, dirt, dust, etc.) from entering into the enclosure and vice versa.
