Provided is an image processing apparatus including: a virtual viewpoint image generating unit that generates a virtual viewpoint image which is a video, based on captured images captured by image capturing apparatuses from different directions; an electronic sign information obtaining unit that obtains information indicating a timing at which a content displayed on an electronic sign changes, the electronic sign being contained in the virtual viewpoint image and configured to change the content to be displayed on a time basis; and a control unit that performs control to cause a display unit to display the virtual viewpoint image having a virtual content inserted, the virtual content being a content that is virtual and not contained in the captured images. Based on the information, the control unit controls how the virtual content is displayed on the virtual viewpoint image.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for initializing a dimensioning system based on a location of a vehicle carrying an object to be dimensioned. An example method disclosed herein includes receiving, from a location system, location data indicating a location of a vehicle carrying an object; responsive to the location data indicating that the vehicle is approaching an imaging area, initializing, using a logic circuit, a sensor to be primed for capturing data representative of the object; receiving, from a motion detector carried by the vehicle, motion data indicating a speed of the vehicle; and triggering, using the logic circuitry, the sensor to capture data representative of the object at a sample rate based on the speed of the vehicle.

A volumetric content enhancement system (“the system”) can annotate at least a portion of a plurality of voxels from a volumetric video with contextual data. The system can determine at least one actionable position within the volumetric video. The system can create an annotated volumetric video that includes the volumetric video, an annotation with the contextual data, and the at least one actionable position. The system can provide the annotated volumetric video to a volumetric content playback system. The system can obtain viewer feedback associated with the viewer and can determine an emotional state of the viewer based, at least in part, upon the viewer feedback. The system can receive viewer position information that identifies a specific actionable position of the viewer. The system can generate manipulation instructions to instruct the volumetric content playback system to manipulate the annotated volumetric content to achieve a desired emotional state of the viewer.

A dynamic event capturing and rendering system collects and aggregates video, audio, positional, and motion data to create a comprehensive user perspective 360-degree rendering of a field of play. An object associated with a user collects data that is stitched together and synchronized to provide post event analysis and training. Through an interface actions that occurred during an event can be recreated providing the viewer with information on what the user associated with the object was experiencing, where the user was looking, and how certain actions may have changed the outcome. Using the collected data, a virtual realty environment is created that can be manipulated to present alternative courses of action and outcomes.

An electronic device according to the present invention includes: a processor; and a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the electronic device to: perform control to change a display region of an image in accordance with an orientation change of the electronic device or in accordance with accepting a user operation and display the display region of the image on a screen; and determine a clipping region of the image to be clipped from the image based on a position of the display region of the image, wherein the image includes the display region and the clipping region and the clipping region is wider than the display region.
