Streamlined Transcoder Architecture

US Patent:
8311114, Nov 13, 2012
Filed:
Dec 6, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/567678
Inventors:
Anthony D. Masterson - Saratoga CA, US
Dzung T. Hoang - Austin TX, US
Alexander N. Kipnis - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:
Zenverge, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04N 7/36
US Classification:
37524016, 37524012
Abstract:
Systems and methods for a streamlined transcoder architecture. A transcoder system includes an encoder and a decoder. The encoder compares a decoded frame and a encoder reference frame to produce an output stream. The decoder produces the decoded frame including decoder reference frame and the encoder reference frame. The decoded frame is produced from an input stream, and the encoder reference frame is produced from the output stream of the encoder. In one embodiment, the encoder refines motion vectors, quantization, and macroblock type/mode from the input stream for reuse in the output stream. Furthermore, the decoded frames from the input stream can be modified in various ways including changing picture resolution and performing image enhancement on them before encoding.

Motion Compensated Noise Reduction Using Shared Motion Estimation Engine

US Patent:
8351510, Jan 8, 2013
Filed:
Jan 29, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/362436
Inventors:
Anthony D. Masterson - Saratoga CA, US
Alexander N. Kipnis - Mountain View CA, US
Dzung Tien Hoang - Austin TX, US
Assignee:
Zenverge, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04N 7/12
G06K 9/36
US Classification:
37524016, 382236
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for generating predictors performs motion estimation of a target macroblock in a target field against data segments in reference fields. The same motion estimation engine is used to perform various image processing operations to efficiently use resources of the apparatus. Different reference fields are used depending on modes of operation. In a deinterlacing mode, deinterlacing is performed using directional interpolation, recursive motion compensated deinterlacing, and motion adaptive deinterlacing.

Optimized Motion Compensation And Motion Estimation For Video Coding

US Patent:
8411749, Apr 2, 2013
Filed:
Oct 1, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/572151
Inventors:
Rojit Jacob - Sunnyvale CA, US
Alexander Kipnis - Mountain View CA, US
Behzad R. Sayyah - Emerald Hills CA, US
Assignee:
Zenverge, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04N 7/12
G06K 9/36
G11B 21/08
US Classification:
37524016, 382232, 369 3001
Abstract:
A system (and a method) are disclosed for intelligently fetch one or multiple reference blocks from memory for each block to be motion compensated or motion estimated within a video processing system. The system includes a reference block configuration evaluation unit and a motion compensation memory fetching unit. The reference block configuration evaluation unit analyzes the reference block configuration of the block being motion compensated with a plurality of reference block configurations of its neighboring blocks. In response to a reference block configuration evaluation result, the reference block configuration evaluation unit decides the configuration of reference blocks to be fetched from a memory. The motion vector memory fetching unit fetches the number of reference blocks for motion compensation accordingly.
