Abstract
An imaging system includes a frame memory component configured to perform a read operation or a write operation of image data. The imaging system also includes an image signal processor configured to write the image data input into the frame memory component in a predetermined order, process data read from the frame memory component, and output the processed image data. The image signal processor converts an order of processing the image data to a direction different from a direction in which the image data is input, process the resultant data, aligns the order of the processed image data in the predetermined order, and outputs the resultant data.
Claims20
An imaging system comprising:
- a frame memory component configured to perform a read operation or a write operation of image data;
- and
- an image signal processor configured to write the image data input into the frame memory component in a predetermined order, process data read from the frame memory component, and output the processed image data,
- wherein
- the image signal processor is configured to convert an order of processing the image data to a direction different from a direction in which the image data is input, process the resultant data, align the order of the processed image data in the predetermined order, and output the resultant data.
An image signal processor comprising:
- a frame memory component configured to store image data;
- and
- a buffer circuit configured to write the image data input in the frame memory component in a predetermined order, process data read from the frame memory component, write the processed data in the frame memory component, and output the processed image data read from the frame memory component,
- wherein the buffer circuit is further configured to:
- when the image data is input in a first direction, convert an order of processing the image data in a second direction, process the resultant data, align the order of the processed image data in the predetermined order, and output the resultant data.
An image signal processor comprising:
- a buffer circuit configured to receive image data in a first orientation direction in which the image data was raster scanned;
- a frame memory component configured to receive from the buffer circuit and store the image data in the first orientation direction;
- an image signal processor configured to read the image data in the first orientation direction through the buffer circuit, change the orientation direction of the image data to a second orientation direction different from the first orientation direction, change the processed image data back to the first orientation direction, and output the processed image data in the first orientation direction through the buffer circuit.
