Abstract: An apparatus and method for enhancing the quality of a digital video signal uses coding information for use in connection with spatial domain sharpness enhancement algorithms used in multimedia devices. The sharpness of previously encoded or transcoded digital video images is enhanced without enhancing encoding artifacts. The apparatus includes a usefulness metric generator that identifies a limit to the sharpness enhancement of an image that can be applied to a previously coded digital video that represents a sequence of images without enhancing coding artifacts. The usefulness metric generator applies the usefulness metric to at least one sharpness enhancement algorithm. The usefulness metric and the sharpness enhancement algorithm are separate so that the usefulness metric can be used with a variety of video enhancement algorithms.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system for dynamically addressing surveillance cameras. In typical surveillance systems, in order to set or change the operating address of a security camera, an operator or installer would have to go to the physical location of the camera to configure switches on the camera. This is often difficult and expensive since a system can include a large number of cameras and the cameras can be placed in hard to reach places. However, dynamically addressing cameras according to the present invention, enables the installer or operator to set the operating address remotely from the controller location such as a "Security Room". Further, addressing the camera remotely will save both time and money since he installer will no longer have to visit the camera site to set or change the operating address, which eliminates the need for ladders and/or expensive bucket trucks.
