System And Method For Providing Enhanced Graphics In A Video Environment

US Patent:
2012012, May 17, 2012
Filed:
Nov 15, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/946704
Inventors:
Zachary R. Bean - Milpitas CA, US
David J. Mackie - San Jose CA, US
Eddie Collins - San Jose CA, US
Mark David Dyer - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 9/64, H04N 7/15
US Classification:
348 1403, 348E09037, 348E07083
Abstract:
A method is provided in one example and includes receiving a video input from a video source coupled to a display configured for rendering a user interface thereon; evaluating a plurality of pixels within the video input; and determining if a particular pixel within the pixels is associated with a color that matches a designated value associated with a chroma-key. If a match is found for the particular pixel, then the particular pixel is rendered as a clear image on the display, and if the match is not found, the particular pixel is darkened by a certain percentage.

System And Method For Providing Enhanced Graphics In A Video Environment

US Patent:
2012012, May 17, 2012
Filed:
Nov 15, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/946709
Inventors:
Zachary R. Bean - Milpitas CA, US
David J. Mackie - San Jose CA, US
Eddie Collins - San Jose CA, US
Mark David Dyer - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
G09G 5/02
US Classification:
345589
Abstract:
A method is provided in one example and includes receiving a video input from a video source coupled to a display configured for rendering a user interface thereon; generating a grayscale element associated with the user interface by evaluating alpha values related to pixels associated with the video input; generating an opacity mask; and setting red, green, blue (RGB) values equal to an alpha value of a source image for certain pixels in the source image.

System And Method For Calibrating Display Overscan Using A Mobile Device

US Patent:
2013005, Mar 7, 2013
Filed:
Sep 6, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/226341
Inventors:
Zachary R. Bean - Milpitas CA, US
Rene A. Villanueva - Santa Clara CA, US
International Classification:
G06K 9/36
US Classification:
382286
Abstract:
A method is provided in one example and includes displaying a calibration area surrounded by a background on a display; analyzing an image of the calibration area to determine if the background is detectable in the image; adjusting the calibration area until at least a portion of the background is not detectable; and storing the adjustment for the calibration area. In more particular examples, the method may include determining a percentage of the background that is detectable; and adjusting the calibration area based on the percentage. In yet other instances, the method may include decreasing a size of the calibration area if the size of the calibration area is bigger than the display.
