Abstract: A VCSEL device having non-coaxial -with-one-another apertures and/or rotationally asymmetric apertures formed in layer(s) of the VCSEL structure to define more than one spatial mode in a light output in operation of the device. An array of such VCSEL devices configured to have different spatial modes at the output of different constituent VCSEL devices. Spatial asymmetry of structure of the constituent VCSEL devices and, therefore, arrays of VCSEL devices causes the overall light output to form an irregular grid of output spots of light. When the VCSEL array is equipped with an appropriate lens array, the spatial components of the light output of the VCSEL array are caused to overlap in the far field or at the imaging plane in a multiple spatial (and spectral) mode fashion, thereby reducing speckle in imaging applications.

Abstract: Exemplary video processing methods and apparatuses for encoding or decoding a current block by inter prediction are disclosed. Input data of a current block is received and partitioned into sub-partitions and motion refinement is independently performed on each sub-partition. A reference block for each sub-partition is obtained from one or more reference pictures according to an initial motion vector (MV). A refined MV for each sub-partition is derived by searching around the initial MV with N-pixel refinement. One or more boundary pixels of the reference block for a sub-partition is padded for motion compensation of the sub-partition. A final predictor for the current block is generated by performing motion compensation for each sub-partition according to its refined MV. The current block is then encoded or decoded according to the final predictor.
