Patent ID: 7612805

Claim:
A digital imaging system for image filtration comprising: a digital camera mechanism, an optical lens mechanism, a digital sensor, a microprocessor, a digital signal processor, an application specific integrated circuit, system software, a database management system and a memory storage sub-system; wherein the optical lens mechanism is a fixed focal length; wherein the aberrations from the optical lens mechanism are corrected by applying digital filtration by using the application specific integrated circuit and the digital signal processor; wherein the microprocessor is used to provide digital and optical data to the digital signal processor; wherein the system software is organized to identify specific optical aberrations and to access the database to identify specific corrections to the aberrations; wherein the system software forwards the data from the digital sensor to the digital processor; wherein the digital signal processor selects a specific procedure to optimize the image and corrects the aberrations; wherein the data are forwarded from the digital sensor to the digital signal processor by an application specific integrated circuit; wherein the digital signal processor applies a fast Fourier transform to a data file in order to satisfy a user specified special effects function; wherein the digital signal processor modifies the data file by applying the special effects function; and wherein the modified data file consisting of the digital data optimized from the aberrations that are corrected from the original optical image is stored in memory.
