SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING IMAGE CAPTURE SETTINGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17457881 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING IMAGE CAPTURE SETTINGS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system that uses extended reality (XR) technology to capture and process images. Here are the key points:

  • The system uses a first camera with an image sensor to capture image data of the environment.
  • The captured information includes the image data and settings used for capturing the image.
  • The system then determines the image capture settings for a second camera that faces the user.
  • The determination of the settings is based on the capture information from the first camera and potentially information from a display buffer.
  • The second camera captures image data according to the determined settings.

Potential Applications

This technology has various potential applications, including:

  • Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) systems can use this technology to capture high-quality images of the environment and the user.
  • It can be used in video conferencing or live streaming applications to enhance the image quality of the user.
  • XR gaming systems can benefit from improved image capture to provide a more immersive experience.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses several problems in XR systems:

  • Ensures that the image capture settings for the user-facing camera are optimized based on the environment and display conditions.
  • Improves the overall image quality and accuracy in XR applications.
  • Reduces the need for manual adjustment of camera settings, making the system more user-friendly.

Benefits

The use of this technology offers several benefits:

  • Enhanced image quality and realism in XR experiences.
  • Simplified user experience with automatic adjustment of camera settings.
  • Improved video quality in video conferencing and live streaming applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

An extended reality (XR) system receives capture information from a first camera with a first image sensor that faces a first direction, for instance facing an environment. The capture information is associated with capture of first image data by the first image sensor, for instance including the first image data and/or first image capture settings used to capture the first image data. The XR system determines an image capture setting, such as an exposure setting, for a second image sensor based on the capture information. The second image sensor faces second direction, for instance facing a user of the XR system. In some examples, the XR system determines the image capture setting also based on information from a display buffer for a display that faces the second direction. The XR system causes a second image sensor to capture second image data according to the image capture setting.
