A 3D calling system can provide 3D calls in various modes according to transitions and can provide affordances (i.e., visual or auditory cues) to improve 3D call image capturing. The 3D calling system of a recipient in a 3D call can display a hologram (from images captured by an external capture device (ECD)) or avatar of a sending call participant in a variety of ways, such as by making them “world-locked,” “ECD-locked,” or “body-locked.” The selection of a 3D call mode can be based on factors such as whether an ECD is active, whether the ECD is in motion, and user selections. In various cases, the 3D calling system can trigger various affordances to improve the quality of the images captured by the sender’s ECD, such as a displayed virtual object and/or an auditory cue, either signaling to the user that a current ECD configuration is non-optimal and/or providing instructions for an improved ECD configuration.

Systems and methods are provided for reordering and/or bypassing certain informational content or menus that are conventionally presented prior to playback of media content stored on physical media discs. Upon initial use of a physical media disc, certain information content or menus may be presented to a user or viewer, for example, piracy warnings, language selection menus, etc. However, upon subsequent use of the physical media disc, such informational content or menus may be bypassed. The user or viewer is given an option to immediately begin consuming the media content stored on the physical media disc. Conventional content, such as trailers are not played prior to playback of the media content.

A camera device for shooting at 360-degree angle and displaying images, and a control system are provided. The camera device includes a supporting platform, a supporting spindle, a supporting base, a rotating shooting bracket, and a video display device. The control system includes at least one wireless communication module configured to receive video data or control commands sent by an external control terminal, a storage module configured to store preset video data, and receive and store the video data transmitted from the wireless communication module, and a control module configured to be in communication connection with the wireless communication module, and the storage module. The control module includes an image processing unit and a display processing unit. The image processing unit obtains the video data stored in the storage module and performs analysis processing on the video data to obtain processed video data.

A light filed (LF) display system for displaying holographic performance content (e.g., a live performance) to viewers in a venue. The LF display system in the venue includes LF display modules tiled together to form an array of LF modules. The array of LF modules create a performance volume (e.g., a stage) for displaying the performance content in the venue. The array of LF modules displays the performance content to viewers in viewing volumes. The LF display system can be included in a LF presentation network. The LF presentation network allows holographic performance content to be recorded at one location and displayed (concurrently or non-concurrently) at another location. The LF presentation network includes a network system to manage the digital rights of the holographic performance content.

Disclosed are transparent energy relay waveguide systems for the superimposition of holographic opacity modulation states for holographic, light field, virtual, augmented and mixed reality applications. The light field system may comprise one or more energy waveguide relay systems with one or more energy modulation elements, each energy modulation element configured to modulate energy passing therethrough, whereby the energy passing therethrough may be directed according to 4D plenoptic functions or inverses thereof.

Cameras are located within the display area of a display. In-display cameras allow for thinner display bezels. In-display cameras allow for the creation of ultra-high resolution images. The ability to capture an object from multiple perspectives allows for holographic image recording and playback. Multiple views of an image can be captured with varying depths of focus, allowing an image's depth of field to be adjusted during post processing. In-display cameras can also be used for user authentication, touch detection and three-dimensional gesture recognition. Thermal sensors located within the display area allow for control of the display temperature, improved control over system performance, and compensation for micro-LED degradation that can occur due to aging or increased temperature. Microlens assemblies located above pixels can adjust the viewing cone angle of the display or a portion of the display and microassemblies located under individual pixels or pixel arrays can adjust a viewing angle.

An information processing device includes: a recording unit that records a flag representing that actual state information as an actual state of contents, which is referred to by reproduction information, is referred to by other reproduction information; a search unit that searches for the actual state information that is deletable by using the flag, in a case where deletion of the reproduction information is instructed; and a deletion unit that deletes the reproduction information of an object to be deleted and the deletable actual state information, in a case where the deletion of the reproduction information is instructed.
