ArcSoft Releases the Latest Version of Its Embedded Automatic Red-Eye Removal for Digital Cameras and Printers; Now with Improved Accuracy and Detection Rate for a Better Consumer Experience.LAS VEGAS Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911. It is the largest city in Nevada and the center of one of the fastest-growing urban areas in the United States. -- ArcSoft, a leader in multimedia technologies and software solutions, today announces Version 1.6 of the red-eye removal solution SDK (Software Developer's Kit) See developer's toolkit and Windows SDK. SDK - Software Developers Kit (or "Software Development Kit"). , an improvement over its previous solution to the age-old problem of red-eye created by digital cameras using a flash. The ArcSoft red-eye solution embedded into the firmware A category of memory chips that hold their content without electrical power. Firmware includes flash, ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM technologies. When holding program instructions, firmware can be thought of as "hard software." See flash memory, ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM and FOTA. of a digital camera enables users to automatically remove this common problem in their photos without the need for a computer. The feature will empower consumers to work directly on their cameras; photos can be enhanced instantly, and then sent directly to a photo-finishing printer. This flexibility and time-saving capability is a huge step toward creating a better experience for any digital camera user. "This is a real technology breakthrough. The biggest challenge for auto red-eye removal solution is in detecting as many red-eye problems as possible while limiting the number of false detections of things like red lips or dots on a tie. This new and improved SDK does it better than any other automatic solution we've come across," said Stephan Cote, ArcSoft Vice President, Imaging Group. "Thanks to ArcSoft's newest solution, you no longer have to sacrifice accuracy for a higher rate of detection." Key Benefits: --Fast and easy integration into almost all OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and imaging capture and output devices --Low memory requirement -- less than 1 MB -- makes the solution compatible with most devices --Low processing power requires as little as 50 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. --Error and detection ratio balanced for better quality image --Advanced color and value blending technologies ensure natural-looking correction results --Fast processing performance allows the integration for either post-processing or pre-processing, providing users more control on detection and correction Benchmark: --Detection Rate: 80% --Error Rate: 1% --Good Fix Rate: 97% --Average Time *: 2.6 Seconds * Benchmark CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. : 108M MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second) The execution speed of a computer. For example, .5 MIPS is 500,000 instructions per second; 100 MIPS is a hundred million instructions per second. 32 About ArcSoft ArcSoft, Inc. is a leading developer of multimedia software and embedded solutions for digital cameras, PC-peripheral, mobile phone, and consumer electronics manufacturers.
