Panel (IQRearViewMirror, IQDriverAssist) working shown below. At full panel brightness, lab Input fed from Component video out from HD Camcorder with IQVisor mounted.This pic was shot from another  video camera. Both setup with standard Auto-Exposure True images, comparing Lab setup with feature OFF vs. ON.

Notes: This situation is similar to headlight glare from the mirrors.  The IQVizor, IQRearViewMirror, IQDriverAssist system take out glare and enhances shadow detail. The wearer’s visibility is enhanced, avoiding accidents due to eye fatigue.

 

IQDriverAssist (Front facing) / IQRearViewMirror (Rear facing) On the Road Night time:

Feature Turned OFF

Feature Turned ON. Compare the Green circle with the Red Circle above. IQVisor was mounted on an automatic exposure video camera, which reacts much like the eye in opening its Iris.

Notes:

·         Same panel from previous comparison used.

·         These are shots 1/8^th of a second apart gotten from a video, showing moving vehicles and the masks applied on them using IQVizor.

·         Vehicles were moving in that 1/8^th of the second, hence the moved headlights and motorist.

·         The road or buildings were not lit by any other light source, to show enhancement to brightness. Above the left headlight, there is a green swatch which brightened along with the background above the pair of car headlights.

 

IQVizor, IQDriverAssist, V2. Real time Fog / Smoke removal and detail enhancement.

Available in Panel mode. Ski goggles being prototyped.

 

Notes:

·         This is IQVizor v2, which removes Fog, Smoke.

·         The system removes a narrow band of brightness while enhancing the rest, such as a bandpass brightness filter. It is real time as well.

·         Fog is a ‘single’ band of brightness (or exposure value, like the feedback tone in audio) and is very hard to simulate using smoke in the lab given resources. This Comparison is Feature ON vs. OFF on device with Video input fed from from a computer monitor displaying this image.
