IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM THAT STORES PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17864585 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, STORAGE MEDIUM THAT STORES PROGRAM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application related to processing texture and illumination data for generating decoration data. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The first acquisition unit acquires texture data, which is then processed to match the size of a specific region set by the setting unit.
- The second acquisition unit acquires illumination data, which is also processed to match the size of the region set by the setting unit.
- The first processing unit processes the texture data, and the second processing unit processes the illumination data.
- From the processed texture data and illumination data, decoration data is generated.
- The generated decoration data is then applied to the region set by the setting unit.
Potential Applications:
- Interior design: The technology can be used to generate decoration data for specific regions in a room, allowing for customized and visually appealing interior designs.
- Augmented reality: The generated decoration data can be applied to virtual objects in augmented reality applications, enhancing the visual experience.
- Product design: The technology can be utilized to generate decoration data for specific areas of a product, enabling customized and aesthetically pleasing designs.
Problems Solved:
- Customization: The technology allows for the generation of decoration data that can be tailored to specific regions, addressing the need for customization in various applications.
- Size adaptation: By processing the texture and illumination data to match the size of the region, the technology ensures that the decoration data fits appropriately, solving the problem of mismatched sizes.
Benefits:
- Enhanced visual appeal: The generated decoration data improves the visual aesthetics of the region it is applied to, enhancing the overall appearance.
- Customization options: The technology provides flexibility in generating decoration data, allowing for customization and personalization according to specific requirements.
- Efficient processing: By processing the texture and illumination data to match the region size, the technology ensures efficient utilization of resources and accurate application of decoration data.
Original Abstract Submitted
The texture data acquired by the first acquisition unit is processed so as to accord with a size of the region set by the setting unit, and the illumination data acquired by the second acquisition unit is processed so as to accord with the size of the region set by the setting unit. The decoration data is generated from the texture data processed by the first processing unit and the illumination data processed by the second processing unit, and the decoration data is applied to the region set by the setting unit are comprised.
