Integrated Circuit With Opposed Spatial Light Modulator And Processor

US Patent:

6639714, Oct 28, 2003

Filed:

Nov 7, 2001

Appl. No.:

10/035643

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ
Kannan Raj - Chandler AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G02F 100

US Classification:

359321, 257678, 257698

Abstract:

An integrated circuit may have a spatial light modulator formed on one side of a semiconductor support and a microprocessor formed on the opposite side. The microprocessor and the spatial light modulator may communicate with one another through electrical connections which extend completely through the semiconductor support. The microprocessor may be contacted using bump packaging techniques.

Focusing Projection Displays

US Patent:

6530666, Mar 11, 2003

Filed:

Jun 10, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/329434

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ
Kannan Raj - Chandler AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G03B 2100

US Classification:

353121, 353101, 353 69, 353 76, 353 31, 348744, 348745, 359 15, 359443, 359460, 349 5

Abstract:

A system detects reflected light from a projection screen associated with a projection display. Reflected light may be analyzed to determine whether the projector is in focus. This information may be used to create input signals that automatically focus the projection display.

Calibrating Projection Displays

US Patent:

6404456, Jun 11, 2002

Filed:

Feb 18, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/252383

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04N 574

US Classification:

348178, 348383, 348745

Abstract:

In a projection display system, a sample of the light output may be extracted and used to calibrate the display. A sample may also be used in multi-display systems (e. g. , light walls), wherein the information from one display in the form of a light sample may be shared with one or more additional displays. In this way, certain characteristics of multiple displays may be correlated with one another to produce a uniform display output.

Magenta-White-Yellow (Mwy) Color System For Digital Image Sensor Applications

US Patent:

5914749, Jun 22, 1999

Filed:

Mar 31, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/052370

Inventors:

Edward J. Bawolek - Chandler AZ
Ronald Dean Smith - Phoenix AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04N 5335

US Classification:

348273

Abstract:

A color imaging device of a plurality of light selective elements. The light selective elements include a first light selective element selective to light having a wavelength corresponding to the Magenta region of the spectrum, a second light selective element selective to light having a wavelength corresponding to the White region of the spectrum, and a third light selective element selective to light having a wavelength corresponding to the Yellow region of the spectrum.

Correcting Non-Uniformity In Displays

US Patent:

6285349, Sep 4, 2001

Filed:

Feb 26, 1999

Appl. No.:

9/259396

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G09G 510

US Classification:

345147

Abstract:

In calibrating displays, analog information may be converted into digital information to control the display. The requirements of the analog to digital converter may be decreased by decreasing the necessary dynamic range for the analog to digital converter. This may be done by developing a first calibration signal indicative of a first plurality of pixels of the display and developing a second calibration signal indicative of a second plurality of the display. The first and second signals may be subtracted from each other and that signal may then be converted to a digital signal with reduced dynamic range requirements for the analog to digital converter.

Calibration Of Digital Cameras

US Patent:

6147702, Nov 14, 2000

Filed:

Apr 17, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/062262

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04N 1500

US Classification:

348 41

Abstract:

A lens cover for a digital camera provides a diffused light source for calibration purposes which approximates a flat field light source. In this way, digital cameras may be calibrated in the field under user control. The diffuser may be in the form of a light transmissive hologram. The hologram may have formed thereon a plurality of light diffusing shapes. The camera may be calibrated either by itself or advantageously when connected to a host computer. The user may be prompted through the calibration sequence.

Calibrating Digital Cameras For Varying Ambient Light Conditions

US Patent:

2004021, Oct 28, 2004

Filed:

May 19, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/848930

Inventors:

Ronald Smith - Phoenix AZ, US
Werner Metz - Chandler AZ, US

International Classification:

H04N005/225

US Classification:

348/207990

Abstract:

An internal or external device may be utilized to calibrate a digital camera for changing ambient light conditions. The device may include a surface which either provides for white light reflectivity or white light transmissivity for making a first measurement of white light intensity. A plurality of light emitting elements of known wavelengths can be used to obtain a second intensity measurement. This information may be used to calibrate the camera for changing ambient light.

Compressing Video Frames

US Patent:

6940908, Sep 6, 2005

Filed:

Sep 17, 1998

Appl. No.:

09/154816

Inventors:

Ronald D. Smith - Phoenix AZ, US

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

H04N007/18

US Classification:

37524019, 37524018

Abstract:

A method includes generating first difference frames and compressing the first difference frames to form compressed difference frames. The compressed difference frames are decompressed to form decompressed difference frames, and the decompressed difference frames are used in the generation of the first difference frames.
