Design-aware image search
11593858 · 2023-02-28 · ·

Systems and techniques for a design-aware image search are described. The design-aware image search techniques described herein capture a design on an item to determine additional items with similar or matching designs. An image of the item is used to create an edge image of a design, and shape descriptors are generated describing features of the edge image. These shape descriptors are compared to shape descriptors associated with other images to locate images that have similar or matching designs as compared with the input image. The design-aware image search system may uses these relationships to generate a search result with images or products having a design similar to the design on the input image.

IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM AND PROGRAM
20220365636 · 2022-11-17 ·

[Problem] To obtain an image desired by a user by performing an intuitive operation.

[Solution] An image display system includes a first display control unit that displays a reference image on a display surface, and a second display control unit that selectably displays a plurality of candidate images each having image information different from the reference image in the periphery of a display area of the reference image on the display surface, wherein each image data of the plurality of candidate images is included in a search area on a predetermined space determined based on the image data of the reference image.

Multimedia communication system and method
11587117 · 2023-02-21 · ·

Systems and methods are disclosed for creating, editing, sharing and distributing high-quality, media-rich web-based communications. The communications are created in a layered fashion that integrates user-selected text, colors, background patterns, images, sound, music, video, or other media. The systems and methods are used to generate, edit, broadcast, and track electronic presentations, brochures, advertisements (such as banner advertisements on highly trafficked media websites), announcements, and interactive web pages, without the need for the user to understand complex programming languages.

MAP CALENDAR GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE WITH DYNAMIC TIME MOLD FUNCTIONALITY

A computer-implemented method for implementing a map calendar application and corresponding map calendar GUI that provide time mold functionality is described herein. The method includes executing the map calendar application to provide the map calendar GUI surfaced on a display. The map calendar GUI includes an interactive visualization of a map calendar, which includes a continuous, manipulable sequence of calendar content data corresponding to calendar content items that are organized based on units of time within a coordinate plane. The method also includes categorizing the calendar content items based on time categories corresponding to the calendar content items and identifying time patterns corresponding to the categorized calendar content items. The method further includes generating a time mold of the map calendar based on the identified time patterns and visually overlaying the time mold onto corresponding calendar content items within the interactive visualization.

Method and device for generating an augmented image

An electronic device and method for generating an augmented image. The device includes an image sensor and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to receive an image, retrieve a set of keywords, and identify a first set of features within the image corresponding to at least one keyword from the set of keywords, producing first metadata. The electronic processor is configured to compress the image, identify a second set of features within the compressed image, producing second metadata, and determine missing metadata between the first metadata and the second metadata. The electronic processor is configured to generate an augmented image by associating the missing metadata to the compressed image and perform at least one selected from the group consisting of transmitting the augmented image to another device and decompressing the augmented image to create a decompressed image and presenting the decompressed image including the missing metadata.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SURGICAL INSTRUMENTATION SETUP AND USER PREFERENCES

A method of notifying personnel in an operating room of a potential hazard comprising, at a computing system: capturing at least one image of the operating room by at least one camera that can detect light outside of a visible spectrum; determining that at least one potential hazard is in the operating room based on analysis of the at least one image; and in response to determining that the at least one potential hazard is in the operating room, generating at least one notification for notifying the personnel in the operating room that there is the at least one potential hazard in the operating room.
