INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18038286 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that can generate a three-dimensional image of a subject using a set of images.
- The apparatus includes an acquisition unit that obtains a set of images capturing the subject.
- A first storage unit is used to store multiple sets of images.
- A first selection unit selects a predetermined number of images from across the stored sets.
- A generation unit then uses the selected images to generate a three-dimensional image of the subject.
Potential applications of this technology:
- 3D modeling and visualization in various industries such as entertainment, gaming, architecture, and virtual reality.
- Medical imaging for creating 3D models of organs or body parts for diagnosis and treatment planning.
- Augmented reality applications that require accurate 3D representations of objects or environments.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Traditional methods of generating 3D images often require specialized equipment or complex processes.
- This technology simplifies the process by utilizing existing image sets and selecting the most relevant images for generating a 3D image.
- It improves the accuracy and efficiency of creating 3D models compared to manual or labor-intensive methods.
Benefits of this technology:
- Enables the creation of more realistic and detailed 3D images.
- Reduces the time and effort required to generate 3D models.
- Utilizes existing image sets, eliminating the need for additional data acquisition.
- Can be integrated into existing systems or applications for enhanced functionality.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing apparatus including: an acquisition unit that obtains an image set including a plurality of images in which a subject is captured; a first storage unit that stores a plurality of image sets; a first selection unit that selects a first predetermined number of images from across the plurality of image sets; and a generation unit that generates a three-dimensional image of the subject on the basis of the first predetermined number of images. According to this information processing apparatus, it is possible to generate a three-dimensional image more properly.
