The purpose of the present invention is to provide an onboard environment recognition device exhibiting high accuracy of measurement in a wider range of view fields. The present invention pertains to an onboard environment recognition device (1) that utilizes two cameras (100, 110) for sensing, wherein the onboard environment recognition device (1) is characterized in that: two camera view fields include a stereo-vision area and a monocular-vision area; and the device laterally searches for parallax images that are output results of the stereo-vision area, estimates a road surface distance in the stereo-vision area, and measures the distance of the monocular-vision area by using the estimated road surface distance after extending the same to the monocular-vision area in the lateral direction.

An imaging system including: a Camera to maintain a field of view, position, rotation and capture of an image; a Camera Vehicle to transport a camera; a Display Device to output images captured by the camera; a Viewing Space to model a viewer coordinates; a Head unit to model the coordinates of a users eyes, such that the positions of both eyes may be calculated based on the head; an Eye unit to maintain a field of view, position and rotation and calculate the eye plane angles; a Field of View unit to maintain a list of angles, which are used within the display process; a Room Space calculation unit to manage the viewing spaces, viewers, and display devices within a physical space; a Recapture Space unit to place recapture units and render output images for the viewer; a Recapture Space Connections unit to connect the recapture units in the recapture space; a Content Space unit to display a 3D scene; an Image Set unit to maintain the list of images used for the display process; an Output Image Set unit to maintain images to be displayed to the viewer.

An immersive headset device is provided that includes a display portion and a body portion. The display portion may include microdisplays having a compact size. The microdisplays may be movable (e.g., rotational) relative to the body portion and can be moved (e.g., rotated) between a flipped-up position and a flipped-down position. In some instances, when the microdisplays are flipped up, the headset provides an augmented reality (AR) mode to a user, and when the microdisplays are flipped down, the headset provide a virtual reality (VR) mode to the user. In certain implementations, the headset includes an electronics source module to provide power and/or signal to the microdisplays. The electronics source module can be attached to a rear of the body portion in order to provide advantageous weight distribution about the head of the user.

A method and apparatus for imaging a body lumen are disclosed. According to the method, an imaging apparatus is induced into the body lumen. Structured light from the imaging apparatus is projected into the body lumen. The structured light reflected from anatomical features in the body lumen is detected by the imaging apparatus. A first structured light image is generated from the detected structured light by the imaging apparatus. Non-structured light is emitted from the imaging apparatus into the body lumen. The non-structured light reflected from the anatomical features in the body lumen is detected by the imaging apparatus. A non-structured light image is generated from the detected non-structured light by the imaging apparatus. The frame period of the first structured light image is shorter than the frame period of the non-structured light image. In one embodiment, the imaging apparatus corresponds to a capsule endoscope.

A virtual monocle interface system comprising multiple interfaces for accessing, presenting, and interacting with multi-dimensional information objects is described. The information objects are visualized in multiple formats across multiple different display units, and displayed for the user to see in two dimensional, two-and-one-half dimensional, or three dimensional forms. The information objects can also be visualized using virtual reality.

An electronic device according to various embodiments can include: a first camera; and a second camera; one or more first transducers corresponding to the first camera and one or more second transducers corresponding to the second camera; and a processor, wherein the processor can be set to check circumstance information related to images acquired using the first camera and the second camera, check a central camera among the first camera and the second camera on the basis of at least circumstance information, use the one or more first transducers to acquire an audio signal when the first camera is the central camera, and use the one or more second transducers to acquire an audio signal when the second camera is the central camera.

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.
