Image processing semiconductor device and image processing device

An image processing semiconductor device comprising:

• a central processing unit (CPU);
• an image processing unit for processing video image data acquired by a video inputting unit and stored in a storage unit;
• and
• a command writing unit for activating the image processing unit in response to receiving a notification from the video inputting unit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
• wherein the CPU does not receive the notification from the video inputting unit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.

An image processing device comprising:

• a storage unit for storing video image data acquired by a video inputting unit;
• a central processing unit (CPU);
• an image processing unit for processing the video image data stored in the storage unit, the image processing unit including a setting unit for determining a processing content of the image processing unit;
• and
• a command writing unit for setting and activating the image processing unit based on a synchronization signal, received from the video inputting unit, indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
• wherein the CPU does not receive the synchronization signal from the video inputting unit indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.

A method for image processing, comprising:

• providing a central processing unit (CPU), an image processing unit, and a command writing unit;
• processing, with the image processing unit, video image data acquired by a video inputting unit and stored in a storage unit;
• and
• operating the command writing unit to activate the image processing unit in response to receiving a notification from the video inputting unit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
• wherein the CPU does not receive the notification from the video inputting unit that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.

A method for image processing, comprising:

• providing a storage unit, a central processing unit (CPU), an image processing unit having a setting unit, and a command writing unit, storing, in the storage unit, video image data acquired by a video inputting unit;
• processing, with the image processing unit, the video image data stored in the storage unit, the setting unit determining a processing content of the image processing unit;
• and
• operating the command writing unit to set and activate the image processing unit based on a synchronization signal, received from the video inputting unit, indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete,
• wherein the CPU does not receive the synchronization signal from the video inputting unit indicating that the acquisition of the video image data is complete.
