VIRTUAL AND AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A method for displaying virtual content to a user, the method includes determining an accommodation of the user's eyes. The method also includes delivering, through a first waveguide of a stack of waveguides, light rays having a first wavefront curvature based at least in part on the determined accommodation, wherein the first wavefront curvature corresponds to a focal distance of the determined accommodation. The method further includes delivering, through a second waveguide of the stack of waveguides, light rays having a second wavefront curvature, the second wavefront curvature associated with a predetermined margin of the focal distance of the determined accommodation.

IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT PERFORMS PROCESSING CONCERNING DISPLAY OF STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
An image processing apparatus that performs processing concerning the display of a stereoscopic image so as to improve the convenience of a user in viewing a stereoscopic image. A head mount display displays a stereoscopic image using image data including a plurality of images having different viewpoints. The image data is processed based on metadata attached to the image data. In a case where information indicating that the image data is associated with a file format which cannot cause the head mount display to perform display is included in the metadata, the image data is converted into a file format which can cause the head mount display to perform display.
METHODS AND DEVICES FOR SELECTING OBJECTS IN IMAGES
Methods and devices for manipulating an image are described. The method comprises receiving image data, the image data including a first image obtained from a first camera and a second image obtained from a second camera, the first camera and the second camera being oriented in a common direction; identifying one or more boundaries of an object in the image data by analyzing the first image and the second image; and displaying a manipulated image based on the image data, wherein the manipulated image includes manipulation of at least a portion of the first image based on boundaries of the object.

Single image sensor for capturing mixed structured-light images and regular images
An integrated image sensor for capturing a mixed structured-light image and regular image using an integrated image sensor are disclosed. The integrated image sensor comprises a pixel array, one or more output circuits, one or more analog-to-digital converters, and one or more timing and control circuits. The timing and control circuits are arranged to perform a set of actions including capturing a regular image and a structured-light image. According to the present invention, the structured-light image captured before or after the regular image is used to derive depth or shape information for the regular image. An endoscope based on the above integrated image sensor is also disclosed. The endoscope may comprises a capsule housing adapted to be swallowed, where the components of integrated image sensor, a structured light source and anon-structured light source are enclosed and sealed in the capsule housing.
