Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Cinematic motion blur and other cinematic effects are enabled during image capture through exposure timing manipulation. The resulting captured images and videos include one or more cinematic effects without the need for a user to impose the cinematic effects post-capture.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for generating cinematic blur in a digital camera, the method comprising: accessing a cinematic effect comprising a total exposure time for a digital image sensor of the digital camera and an effective exposure time; generating a pulse pattern for the image sensor comprising a plurality of pulse durations such that consecutive pulse durations are separated by non-zero spacing durations, the sum of the plurality of pulse durations substantially equ…
