SELF CORRECTING ADAPTIVE LOW LIGHT OPTICAL PAYLOAD
Methods and systems are disclosed for compensating for image motion induced by a relative motion between an imaging platform and a scene. During an exposure period, frames of the scene may be captured respectively in multiple spectral bands, where one of the spectral bands has a lower light level than the first spectral band, and contemporaneous frames include a nearly identical induced image motion. Image eigenfunctions are utilized to estimate the induced image motion from the higher SNR spectral band, and compensate in each of the multiple bands.
DISPLAY UNIT AND METHOD FOR REPRESENTING INFORMATION
The disclosure relates to providing of a display that can provide content through either a virtual image from a heads-up-display or a transparent display physically adhered to the back surface of the heads-up-display. The aspects disclosure herein also relate to providing a detection of an input, and in response to detection, switching the combined display from a first mode to a second mode.
SYSTEM FOR THE STEREOSCOPIC VISUALIZATION OF AN OBJECT REGION
Presented herein are methods and systems for visualizing an object region. The system including an electronic image capturing device, comprising an optical assembly, which provides a first optical channel for a first imaging beam path imaging the object region on a first sensor area of the image capturing device and a second optical channel for a second imaging beam path imaging the object region on a second sensor area of the image capturing device and which contains a microscope main objective system, through which the first imaging beam path and the second imaging beam path pass, comprising a first image producing device for the visualization of the object region for a first observer, to whom a first image of the object region, captured on the first sensor area, and a second image of the object region, captured on the second sensor area, are suppliable, and comprising a second image producing device for visualizing the object region for a second observer.
STABILIZED MICRO SPATIAL WIND VECTOR DETECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR USE IN MARINE ENVIRONMENTS
A wind detection apparatus detects wind vectors across a predetermined area at high resolution from a floating support. The apparatus includes a Doppler-based wind vector detection unit configured to detect wind direction, velocity, and turbulence, at selected intervals over the predetermined area. A stabilizer supports the wind vector detection unit and is configured to hold it level relative to a predetermined two-dimensional plane. A processor is provided for rendering the wind vector data into a combined representation of wind patterns across the predetermined area, and the processor continuously updates the rendered combined representation of wind patterns in tandem with the detection unit.
DISPLAY CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
A display control apparatus includes: an accepting unit configured to accept a predetermined operation from a user; a switching unit configured to switch between a first screen on which a display item is displayed in a first layout, and a second screen which includes at least one display item displayed with a first size on the first screen and on which the display item is displayed with a second size and in a second layout; and a display control unit configured to perform control such that, during the predetermined operation for switching from the first screen to the second screen, the first screen and the second screen are displayed while being superimposed without continuously changing the size of the display item in accordance with the predetermined operation, and upon completion of the predetermined operation, the second screen is displayed without the first screen and the second screen being superimposed.
Aligning and blending image data from multiple image sensors
Described are systems and methods for generating high dynamic range (“HDR”) images based on image data obtained from different image sensors for use in detecting events and monitoring inventory within a materials handling facility. The different image sensors may be aligned and calibrated and the image data from the sensors may be generated at approximately the same time but at different exposures. The image data may then be preprocessed, matched, aligned, and blended to produce an HDR image that does not include overexposed regions or underexposed regions.
AUGMENTED REALITY SELF-PORTRAITS
Systems, methods, apparatuses and non-transitory, computer-readable storage mediums are disclosed for generating AR self-portraits or “AR selfies.” In an embodiment, a method comprises: capturing, by a first camera of a mobile device, live image data, the live image data including an image of a subject in a physical, real-world environment; receiving, by a depth sensor of the mobile device, depth data indicating a distance of the subject from the camera in the physical, real-world environment; receiving, by one or more motion sensors of the mobile device, motion data indicating at least an orientation of the first camera in the physical, real-world environment; generating a virtual camera transform based on the motion data, the camera transform for determining an orientation of a virtual camera in a virtual environment; and generating a composite image data, using the image data, a matte and virtual background content selected based on the virtual camera orientation.
VIRTUAL FUNCTIONAL MODULES FOR MEASURING DEVICES AND EQUIPMENT COMPONENTS
A system for detecting, analyzing and manipulating devices, wherein a virtual graphics component displays an operating state of the device and is integrated in a moving image of the device as a complete image, and wherein the complete image is updated at regular time intervals.
Reproducing device, reproducing method, program, and transmitting device
A transmitting apparatus including circuitry configured to generate caption data corresponding to content data and having elements defined in Extensible Markup Language (XML), and output the content data and the generated caption data to a reproducing device.
HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY
A head mounted display device comprises an optical combiner that combines light from a display and light from an environment into light transmitted towards a user's eye. A controllable optical element located in the light path from the environment, optically between the environment and the optical combiner, for passing light from the environment switchable between filtering and not filtering by optical blurring or diffusion. The device comprises a camera directed at the environment. A control circuit uses image data from the camera to compute a measure of contrast and/or a measure of luminance in a measurement region within an image or images captured by the camera and applies a control signal to the control input dependent on the measure of contrast and/or the measure of luminance. This is used to create or increase the filtering effect of controllable optical element with an increase of the measure of contrast and/or the measure of luminance.
