Image Correction via Rotation and Mapping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional image processing methods and devices struggle to effectively correct image deformation in images captured by cameras, which complicates the correction process due to deformation along multiple directions.
Innovation Solution
An image processing method and device that corrects a to-be-processed image into a first correction image using a first mapping relationship, rotates it by an angle, and further corrects it into a second correction image using a second mapping relationship along the same correction direction, simplifying the correction complexity by aligning deformations along a single direction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If conventional image processing methods correct image deformation along multiple directions, then the correction completeness is improved, but the correction complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the image correction process into multiple sequential stages, each handling deformation along a specific direction. The correction unit processes the image in steps, first correcting along one direction, then rotating and correcting along another direction, breaking down the complex multi-directional correction into manageable segments that reduce overall complexity while maintaining completeness
2Measurement precision
If the number of correction directions is increased, then the correction accuracy is improved, but the processing time is extended
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary rotation of the image to align deformation directions with standard correction axes before applying correction algorithms. By pre-aligning the image orientation, the correction process becomes more efficient and accurate, reducing the time required for multi-directional correction while maintaining high precision

AI summary
The present invention discloses an image processing method. The image processing method includes the following steps: (a), a to-be-processed image is corrected as a first correction image according to a first mapping relationship along a correction direction; (b) the first correction image by an angle is rotated; and (c) the rotated first correction image is corrected as a second correction image according to a second mapping relationship along the same correction direction. In embodiment, given that the to-be-processed image is deformed along two different directions, the to-be-processed image is corrected along the same correction direction, such that correction complexity could be reduced.
