Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An embedded imaging system in one embodiment includes an encoding module, an imaging module, and a cable. The encoding module is disposed proximate to a proximal end of the system, and is configured to encode frame synchronizing information into timing information comprising a reference clock. The imaging module is disposed proximate the distal end, and includes an image capture device configured to obtain imaging information and a decoding module. The decoding control module is configured to obtain the timing information, to decode the timing information to obtain recovered frame synchronizing information, and to control the image capture device using the recovered frame synchronizing information. The cable is interposed between the proximal end and the distal end, and is configured for passage therethrough of the timing information and the imaging information.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An embedded imaging system comprising: an encoding module disposed proximate to a proximal end of the system, the encoding module configured to encode frame synchronizing information for controlling electronics disposed proximate a distal end of the system, the encoding module configured to encode the frame synchronizing information into timing information comprising a reference clock; an imaging module disposed proximate the distal end, the imaging module…
