One example system for displaying immersive scenes includes a processor and at least one memory device. The memory device includes instructions that are executable by the processor to cause the processor to receive a collection of metadata associated with an immersive scene, identify each of a plurality of properties of the immersive scene based on the collection of metadata, receive a dynamic immersive background, receive a plurality of video streams associated with a video conference, and display each of the plurality of video streams in the immersive scene based at least in part of the plurality of properties of the immersive scene and on the dynamic immersive background.

Provided are systems and methods for personalized videos featuring multiple persons. An example method includes receiving a user selection of a video having at least one frame with metadata that include a first location and a second location and receiving an image of a source face and a further image of a further source face, modifying the image of the source face to generate an image of a modified source face and modifying the further image of the further source face to generate an image of a modified further source face, inserting, in the at least one frame of the video, the image of the modified source face at the first location and the image of the modified further source face at the second location to generate a personalized video, and sending the personalized video via a communication chat.

A captured scene captured of a live action scene while a display wall is positioned to be part of the live action scene may be processed. To perform the processing, image data of the live action scene having a live actor and the display wall displaying a first rendering of a precursor image is received. Further, precursor metadata for the precursor image displayed on the display wall and display wall metadata for the display wall is determined. An image matte is accessed, where the image matte indicates a first portion associated with the live actor and a second portion associated with the precursor image on the display wall in the live action scene. Pixel display values to add or modify an image effect or a visual effect are determined, and the image data is adjusted using the pixel display values and the image matte.

A method of producing a Pepper's Ghost, includes projecting an image of a subject onto a reflective and transparent screen to create a virtual image of the subject alongside an object, the subject in the virtual image having a colour temperature. The object is illuminated with light having a colour and intensity that results in a colour temperature of the object at least approximately matching the colour temperature of the subject in the virtual image. The subject in the virtual image has a luminance and may be illuminated with light having a colour and intensity that results in a luminance of the object at least approximately matching the luminance of the subject in the virtual image.

A hand-held or otherwise portable or spatial or temporal performance-based image capture device includes one or more lenses, an aperture and a main sensor for capturing an original main image. A secondary sensor and optical system are for capturing a reference image that has temporal and spatial overlap with the original image. The device performs an image processing method including capturing the main image with the main sensor and the reference image with the secondary sensor, and utilizing information from the reference image to enhance the main image. The main and secondary sensors are contained together within a housing.

An information processing apparatus configured to paste a full-spherical panoramic image along an inner wall of a virtual three-dimensional sphere; calculate an arrangement position for arranging a planar image closer to a center point of the virtual three-dimensional sphere than the inner wall, in such an orientation that a line-of-sight direction from the center point to the inner wall and a perpendicular line of the planar image are parallel to each other, the planar image being obtained by pasting an embedding image to be embedded in the full-spherical panoramic image, on a two-dimensional plane; and display a display image on a display unit. The display image is a two-dimensional image viewed from the center point in the line-of-sight direction in a state in which the full-spherical panoramic image is pasted along the inner wall of the virtual three-dimensional sphere and the planar image is arranged at an arrangement position.

A sewing machine includes a first image acquisition unit, a second image acquisition unit, and a display unit. In the sewing machine, the first image acquisition performs image acquisition from the front face side of a cloth for a stitching pattern formed in the cloth. The second image acquisition unit performs image acquisition from the back face side of the cloth such that the center position of the acquired image matches the center position of the image of the stitching pattern acquired by the first image acquisition unit. The display unit displays, on the same screen, a first stitching pattern video image thus acquired by the first image acquisition unit and a second stitching pattern video image thus acquired by the second image acquisition unit.
