Comment on Patent troll Sable pays up, dedicates all its patents to the public!
henfredemars@infosec.pub 1 month agoThat’s really cool! My invention was a means of accelerated processing for images that makes it cheaper to produce what used to be dedicated color processing chips for digital cameras. While these are no longer used today, it did find some applications. At this point there’s a few libraries or at least some of the rows as open source in the hopes they might find some use in the future and contribute to society that way.

Cool, digital photography is an area that has had insane development IMO.
I’m absolutely flabbergasted by the digital photography capabilities of modern phones. high res, image stabilization, and of course color mapping/filtering.
The processing power needed is insane. 4K movies are 8 megapixel at 3 colors 30 fps, and it’s 750 million sub pixels, that need to be processed per second, and we do that on a cheap tiny handheld device! The better ones can handle 8K and that’s 3 Billion sub pixels per second!
It’s impressive that you have been part of it. 👍 😎
