1. A detection device, comprising:
- an image capture element, for capturing an optical signal, and outputting an image signal;
a control signal generator, for generating a control signal; and
a processor, for selectively converting the image signal into an object feature or an image feature in response to the control signal, wherein the object feature is at least one parameter of at least one image object that is a pattern having a geometric shape in the image signal, and wherein the parameter is one of or a combination of more than one of a coordinate value of the image object, an area value of the image object, an aspect ratio of the image object, a direction value of the image object, a color value of the image object, and an object vertex number of the image object.

Abstract
A detection device includes an image capture element, a control signal generator, and a processor. The image capture element is used for capturing an optical signal, and outputting an image signal. The control signal generator is used for generating a control signal. The processor selectively converts the image signal into an object feature or an image feature in response to the control signal. Such a detection device can appropriately convert an operation mode, so as to have both efficacies of reducing the amount of transferred data and processing complex image data.

12. An image capture system, comprising:
-
a lens, for allowing an optical signal to pass through; an image capture element, for capturing the optical signal, and outputting an image signal; a control signal generator, for generating a control signal; a processor, for selectively converting the image signal into an object feature or an image feature in response to the control signal, and a signal transfer element, for transferring the object feature or the image feature, wherein the object feature is at least one parameter of at least one image object that is a pattern having a geometric shape in the image signal, and wherein the parameter is one of or a combination of more than one of a coordinate value of the image object, an area value of the image object, an aspect ratio of the image object, a direction value of the image object, a color value of the image object, and an object vertex number of the image object. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
