i Sight April 1998 i Sight
Objective • Present i Sight Company. • Present i Sight Technologies. • Description of technologies. • Status of each technology. • Discuss possible cooperation. i Sight
Company’s Background • Established in 1990 • Developing , manufacturing and marketing advanced digital video communication products. • Our technology is based upon research of the human eye mechanisms. • A member of Clal Electronics Industries. (The biggest electronics holding company in Israel). i Sight
Technology • Unique patented technologies • Image acquisition • Adaptive SensitivityTM • Image enhancement: • Super Resolution • Regional Equalization • Meeting room solution • OmniSightTM. i Sight
Technology (continue) • Complete Digital Camera Technology • i Sight iSP2000 DSP. • Digital Camera Design. • Panoramic (3600) Camera System. i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity • The problem • Scene contains very bright and very dark areas • Solution • Adaptive Sensitivity expends the Dynamic range : • Conventional cameras 48db • With Adaptive Sensitivity 72db • Pre processing and processing parts. i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity • Typical security application • Interior part is dark. • Exterior part is Bright. • In order to see interior part : • Shutter is open. • Exposure time is longer • exterior part becomes saturated i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity • In order to see the exterior part • Shutter is closed • Exposure time is shorten. • As a result - interior part becomes too dark with no information i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity • The Solution • Adaptive Sensitivity • Combining two Exposures into one image. i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity i Sight
Adaptive Sensitivity - Status • Implemented in a real time DSP chip • Implemented in various products i Sight
Super Resolution • The Problem • Camera’s sensors resolution is poor. • Zoom function is needed. • JPEG decompression creates artifacts. • One interlaced video field is available to create the frame. • Solution • Super Resolution - Post-processing technique. i Sight
Super Resolution • Application Example • Zoom on part of the image. • Higher image resolution is required i Sight
Super resolution • The problem: • Standard techniques: • linear interpolation • polynomial interpolations • Creates artifacts • blockiness • blur i Sight
Super Resolution • Super Resolution • Creates the impression of higher resolution • No artifacts • No information is added • Post processing technique i Sight
Super Resolution i Sight
Super Resolution • The problem • Interlaced Video • freezing an interlaced video. • slow motion. • printing from video i Sight
Super Resolution • Standard interpolation methods are not good enough. i Sight
Super Resolution • The Solution: • Super Resolution i Sight
Super Resolution - Status • Software for still image enhancement • Application in Agfa DSC Ephoto 1280 i Sight
Regional Equalization • The Problem: • Image local contrast is low. • Due to High dynamic range scene. • Due to non optimal exposure. • The solution: • Regional Equalization - Post processing technique. i Sight
Regional Equalization • The problem: • Low local contrast i Sight
Regional Equalization • The Solution • Regional Equalization i Sight
Regional Equalization • Simple demo i Sight
Regional Equalization - Status • Software Demo - available • Real Time H/W prototype - available i Sight
Products - iSC2020 • Extended Dynamic Range. • Remote Camera Miniature Head. • Integrated digital Storage/Retrieval. i Sight
Products - iSC2050 • Extended Dynamic range - up to 72db. • Low Light options. • Remote camera miniature head. • Programmable Statistics. i Sight
Products - iSC3010/iSC3020 • Adaptive Sensitivity • Motion Detection • Remote Control • Low Light Options. i Sight
