Method For Generating A Compressed Video Signal

View page
US Patent:
60728302, Jun 6, 2000
Filed:
Aug 9, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/689519
Inventors:
John J. Proctor - Nevada City CA
Mark M. Baldassari - Nevada City CA
Craig H. Richardson - Marietta GA
Chris J. M. Hodges - Atlanta GA
Kwan K. Truong - Norcross GA
David L. Smith - Atlanta GA
Assignee:
U.S. Robotics Access Corp. - Skokie IL
International Classification:
H04N 712
H04N 730
US Classification:
375240
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for encoding an image signal. The apparatus includes an acquisition module disposed to receive the image signal. A first processor is coupled to the acquisition module. At least one encoder processor is coupled to the first processor. The at least one encoder processor produces an encoded image signal under control of the first processor. The method includes the steps of converting an input image signal into a predetermined digital format and transferring the digital format image signal to at least one encoder processor. The method further includes the step of applying, at the at least one encoder processor, a hierarchical vector quantization compression algorithm to the digitized image signal. At the next step, a resultant encoded bit stream generated by the application of the algorithm is collected. The method and apparatus of the present invention may be used in conjunction with an ordinary modem to transmit and/or receive audio, video sequences or still images.

Adaptive Architecture For Video Effects

View page
US Patent:
49472569, Aug 7, 1990
Filed:
Apr 26, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/344189
Inventors:
David G. S. Wood - Grass Valley CA
Mark Baldassari - Penn Valley CA
Assignee:
The Grass Valley Group, Inc. - Nevada City CA
International Classification:
H04N 5272
H04N 5262
H04N 974
US Classification:
358183
Abstract:
An adaptive architecture for video effects allows a transformed image from a digital video effects (DVE) system to be inserted at any desired point along a video path through a production switcher while maintaining strict timing reqirements between the digital video effects system and the production switcher. The transformed image from the DVE system is input to a primary input bus as well as to a fill video input of a dowstream keyer (DSK) for the production switcher. A key signal from the DVE system is input to an effects key input and a key input of the DSK for the production switcher. The DVE system has a genlock timing system that provides a variable output timing signal to synchronize the transformed image with the video of the production system at the desired point of insertion along the video path. The DVE system also has an output overlay mixer that passes the program video from the production switcher to the system output unless the insertion point is at the output of the production switcher, at which point the transformed video is overlaid on the program output. The desired insertion point is determined by a topology mode indicator included within the keyframes that are programmed to produce a desired video effect.

Depth Signal Processing In A Video Switcher

View page
US Patent:
52852830, Feb 8, 1994
Filed:
Jun 25, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/904404
Inventors:
Jon A. Fairhurst - Grass Valley CA
Jay S. Baker - Grass Valley CA
Mark M. Baldassari - Penn Valley CA
Assignee:
The Grass Valley Group, Inc. - Nevada City CA
International Classification:
H04N 5268
US Classification:
348705
Abstract:
A switcher with depth processing includes a depth processor module. External depth data, or internally generated depth data, are input to the depth processor to generate a priority signal for combining key video signals as layers between a background and a foreground video signal. Further a composite depth signal is generated for the combined key video signals for subsequent processing so that additional key video layers may be intersected and intertwined with the key video layers in the combined video signals.

Fire Detection, Automated Shutoff And Alerts Using Distributed Energy Resources And Monitoring System

View page
US Patent:
20170133844, May 11, 2017
Filed:
Nov 7, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/345012
Inventors:
- Petaluma CA, US
Mark Baldassari - Santa Rosa CA, US
John Scott Berdner - Grass Valley CA, US
International Classification:
H02J 3/00
G05B 9/02
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for using distributed energy resources (DERs) to detect a fire event. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving, at a controller comprising at least one processor, temperature data from at least one power conditioner of a DER; analyzing, by the controller, the temperature data with respect to at least one temperature reference; determining, by the controller and based on analyzing the temperature data with respect to the at least one temperature reference, whether a fire event exists; and when it is determined that a fire event exists, performing, by the controller, at least one action for addressing the fire event.
