FiLMiC Cubiform Technology generates real time color look-up tables for images, or series of images, with minimal GPU or CPU utilization.
FiLMiC Inc. (www.filmicpro.com) today announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued a patent, No. US 10,855,886 B2, for the Company's unique and highly-efficient technology for image remapping Cubiform. This new development further strengthens FiLMiC's intellectual property positions in mobile cinematography and photography.

Cubiform: A Revolutionary New Image Processing Technology
FiLMiC's newly-patented image remapping technology, Cubiform, is an approach to applying a remap to each pixel in an image. Rather than directly modifying images, Cubiform generates a stream of color look-up tables (C-LUTs) from a dynamic set of parameters, which can be modified by users in real time. The stream of C-LUTs created by Cubiform can be applied to an image or a series of images with minimal performance impact on the CPU or GPU.

This approach is significantly more efficient for complex remap operations as the C-LUT is treated like a static data-model and discarded if a different transform is desired.
In use therefore, Cubiform can reflect image-transform parameter changes in real-time at the cost of a lower resultant image quality but only while edits are occuring. When edits are complete, Cubiform will generate a high-precision C-LUT capable of producing a high-quality image remap.
FiLMiC's Cubiform technology not only represents a significant technological advancement in image processing, it also represents our deep commitment to forwarding mobile cinema camera and professional mobile photography innovation, said Neill Barham, CEO of FiLMiC Inc. The entire team at FiLMiC recognizes the responsibility we have to our customers, and to the industry. This is no longer just about making great apps, this is about enabling an entirely new generation of filmmakers and photographers; and to do that well demands advanced technological sophistication and elegance. We're extremely proud of this contribution.
