CPC Class H04N

A method for intra-prediction estimation is provided that includes determining a best intra-prediction mode for a block of samples, wherein at least some of the neighboring samples used for intra-prediction estimation include approximate reconstructed samples, applying approximate reconstruction to the block of samples using the best intra-prediction mode to generate a block of approximate reconstructed samples, and storing the block of approximate reconstructed samples for use in intra-prediction estimation of other blocks of samples.

A display device comprises: a motor; a display; a plurality of speakers provided in a plurality of regions of the display; and at least one processor. The at least one processor being configured to output a plurality of audio signals corresponding to a plurality of audio channels to the plurality of speakers, control the motor to rotate the display, based on an input of a user command for rotating the display, and control the plurality of speakers to output the plurality of audio signals in response to a change in positions of the plurality of speakers based on a rotation of the display.

Fluorescence videostroboscopy imaging is described. A system includes an emitter for emitting pulses of electromagnetic radiation and an image sensor comprising a pixel array for sensing reflected electromagnetic radiation. The system includes a controller configured to cause the emitter to emit the pulses of electromagnetic radiation at a strobing frequency determined based on a vibration frequency of vocal cords of a user. The system is such that at least a portion of the pulses of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the emitter comprises electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength from about 770 nm to about 790 nm.

Implementations of the disclosed subject matter provide methods of transmitting, from a first user device, an authorization to one or more other user devices to receive one or more images captured by a first sensor of a mobile robot device, where the first user device controls the mobile robot device. The first user device may receive acknowledgement from the one or more other user devices to receive the one or more images captured by the first sensor of the mobile robot device. The mobile robot device may transmit, to the first user device and the one or more other user devices based on the acknowledgement, the one or more first images captured by the first sensor of the mobile robot as the mobile robot device moves within the area based on at least one first control operation received from the first user device.

A display apparatus including a display panel configured to display an image in a front direction; a main speaker provided on a rear surface of the display panel; and an auxiliary speaker provided on the rear surface of the display panel, the auxiliary speaker being configured to output a sound in a rear direction opposing the front direction.
