Estimating the term…
An image processing system comprises an image processor configured to establish a main processing thread and a parallel processing thread for respective portions of a multithreaded gesture recognition process. The parallel processing thread is configured to utilize buffer circuitry of the image processor, such as one or more double buffers of the buffer circuitry, so as to permit the parallel processing thread to run asynchronously to the main processing thread. The parallel processing thread implements one of noise estimation, background estimation and static hand pose recognition for the multithreaded gesture recognition process. Additional processing threads may be established to run in parallel with the main processing thread. For example, the image processor may establish a first parallel processing thread implementing the noise estimation, a second parallel processing thread implementing the background estimation, and a third parallel processing thread implementing the static hand pose recognition.
A method comprising:
An apparatus comprising:
The apparatus of claim 15 wherein one or more of the common input frame buffer, the noise buffer and the background buffer comprise respective double buffers, with each double buffer configured such that data can be written to a first buffer of the double buffer while data is being read from a second buffer of the double buffer and vice versa.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
