Surround camera to generate a parking video signal and a recorder video signal from a single sensor
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- an interface configured to receive a video signal having a first field of view; and
a circuit, connected to the interface, configured to (a) generate a second field of view and a third field of view both from said video signal received from said interface and (b) encode said second field of view, wherein (i) said second field of view is (A) encoded for storage and (B) not presented to a display for viewing, (ii) said third field of view is (A) presented to said display for viewing and (B) not encoded, (iii) said second field of view and said third field of view each comprise an area less than said first field of view and (iv) said second field of view and said third field of view are both generated from a portion of said video signal captured by a camera sensor of a single camera.

Abstract
An apparatus comprising a sensor and a processor. The sensor may be configured to capture a first video signal having a first field of view. The processor may be configured to generate a second video signal having a second field of view and a third video signal having a third field of view. The second video signal may generate the second field of view to include a first portion of the first video signal. The third video signal may generate the third field of view to include a second portion of the first video signal. The second portion may be processed to remove possible warping present on a bottom portion of the first video signal. The first and second portions may comprise an area less than the first field of view.

16. An apparatus comprising:
-
a sensor configured to generate a video signal having a first field of view; and a processor configured to (a) generate a second field of view and a third field of view both from said video signal generated by said sensor and (b) encode said second field of view, wherein (i) said second field of view is (A) encoded for storage and (B) not presented to a display for viewing, (ii) said third field of view is (A) presented to said display for viewing and (B) not encoded, (iii) said second and third fields of view each comprise an area less than said first field of view and (iv) said second field of view and said third field of view are both generated from a portion of said video signal captured by a single sensor of a camera system.

17. An apparatus comprising:
-
an interface configured to receive a first video signal having a first field of view from a sensor; and a circuit, connected to the interface, configured to (a) generate a second video signal having a second field of view and a third video signal having a third field of view both from said first video signal generated by said sensor and (b) encode said second video signal, wherein (i) said second video signal is (A) encoded for recording to a storage device and (B) not presented to a display for viewing, (ii) said third video signal is (A) presented to said display for viewing and (B) not encoded, (iii) at least one of said second video signal and said third video signal is processed to remove possible warping present on a bottom portion of said first video signal, (iv) said second and third fields of view each comprise an area less than said first field of view and (v) said second field of view and said third field of view are both generated from a single sensor of a camera without installing separate sets of sensors.
