Method of providing contents regarding image capturing to image capture apparatus
A method includes providing a mission regarding image capturing to a user terminal having an image capture function, evaluating an image transmitted from the user terminal in response to the mission, and additionally providing a new mission regarding image capturing to the user terminal in a case where a level of achievement of the mission is determined to satisfy a criterion based on the evaluation.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING MULTI-CAMERA, AND PHOTOGRAPHING METHOD
An electronic device having a multi-camera, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, includes: the multi-camera, a display, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the camera, the display, and the memory. The processor may be configured to receive a first image being photographed at a first angle of view of the camera, receive a second image being photographed at a second angle of view of the camera, identify a subject in the first image according to predetermined criteria, generate a third image in which the identified subject is cropped according to a predetermined area of interest, and display the second image and the third image on at least a portion of an area in which the first image is displayed. Various other embodiments may be possible.
Conditional camera control via automated assistant commands
Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can control a camera according to one or more conditions specified by a user. A condition can be satisfied when, for example, the automated assistant detects a particular environment feature is apparent. In this way, the user can rely on the automated assistant to identify and capture certain moments without necessarily requiring the user to constantly monitor a viewing window of the camera. In some implementations, a condition for the automated assistant to capture media data can be based on application data and/or other contextual data that is associated with the automated assistant. For instance, a relationship between content in a camera viewing window and other content of an application interface can be a condition upon which the automated assistant captures certain media data using a camera.
Methods and devices for capturing high-speed and high-definition videos
Methods and devices for generating a slow motion video segment are described. A first set of video frames captures a video view at a first resolution and at a first frame rate. A second set of video frames captures the video view at a second lower resolution, and at a second frame rate that is greater for at least a portion of the second set. At least two high resolution frames are identified in the first set for generating the slow motion video segment. One or more low resolution frames are identified in the second set corresponding to an inter-frame time period between the identified high resolution frames. The slow motion video segment is generated by generating at least one high resolution frame corresponding to the inter-frame time period using interpolation based on the identified high resolution frames and the identified low resolution frames.
Optimal real world photo selection by non-professionals
There is disclosed a system, apparatus and methods for optimizing photo selection. When a photographer takes photos as requested in a shot list, the photos are automatically assigned a quality score which correlates to how prominently the photo would be displayed in an online search. The photos and the quality scores are displayed to the photographer so that when the photographer has shot a sufficiently high quality photo then the photographer can stop shooting. Photos with the highest quality scores are optimal. The shot lists include reference photos, and if a new photo has a higher quality score than the corresponding reference photo, the new photo becomes the reference photo.
Region of interest-based resolution normalization
Normalized resolutions are determined for first and second regions of interest of an initial video stream captured by a video capture device located within a physical space. The first region of interest is associated with a first conference participant within the physical space and the second region of interest is associated with a second conference participant within the physical space. Instructions are transmitted to the video capture device to cause the video capture device to capture, at the normalized resolutions, a first video stream associated with the first region of interest and a second video stream associated with the second region of interest. The first and second video streams conform sizes and quality levels of the first and second conference participants within separate user interface tiles of a conferencing software user interface to which the first and second video streams are output.
ENHANCED OBJECT DETECTION
Systems and techniques are provided for processing image data. According to some aspects, a process can include obtaining a frame captured using an image sensor of a device. The process can include detecting an orientation of the device using a position sensor. The process can further include determining, based on the orientation, a transform to be applied to a region of interest in the frame. The process can include applying the transform to the region of interest. The process can further include providing the transformed region of interest to the object detection algorithm.
CAMERA CONTROL USING SYSTEM SENSOR DATA
A method for using cameras in an augmented reality headset is provided. The method includes receiving a signal from a sensor mounted on a headset worn by a user, the signal being indicative of a user intention for capturing an image. The method also includes identifying the user intention for capturing the image, based on a model to classify the signal from the sensor according to the user intention, selecting a first image capturing device in the headset based on a specification of the first image capturing device and the user intention for capturing the image, and capturing the image with the first image capturing device. An augmented reality headset, a memory storing instructions, and a processor to execute the instructions to cause the augmented reality headset as above are also provided.
Repetitive video monitoring of industrial equipment by mobile data acquisition units
Systems and methods are provided to perform PdM surveys using data acquisition units which scan screen multiple locations where equipment or structures to be evaluated are present. Video data will be acquired and processed to measure translational and vibratory motion and additional data will be collected from other camera, sensors or via data links. The motion present in the equipment or structures under test and the supplemental data will be automatically evaluated to detect suspect equipment conditions and to minimize the amount of video data maintained on the data acquisition unit and transmitted back the central PdM server for review by a PdM analyst and long term archival.
Hand pose estimation from stereo cameras
Systems and methods herein describe using a neural network to identify a first set of joint location coordinates and a second set of joint location coordinates and identifying a three-dimensional hand pose based on both the first and second sets of joint location coordinates.
