INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, MEDIUM, AND SYSTEM FOR COLOR CORRECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18057073 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, MEDIUM, AND SYSTEM FOR COLOR CORRECTION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that determines the number of images to be captured by two different imaging devices based on their imaging parameters. It then generates color correction information to correct any color differences between the images captured by the two devices.

  • The information processing apparatus acquires imaging parameters of two imaging devices.
  • Based on the imaging parameters, it determines the number of images to be captured by each device.
  • The apparatus acquires color information from the captured images.
  • It generates color correction information using the acquired color information.
  • The color correction information is used to correct any color differences between the images captured by the two devices.

Potential Applications

  • Photography: This technology can be used in professional photography to ensure consistent color representation across multiple cameras.
  • Video production: It can be applied in video production to maintain color consistency between different cameras used for shooting.
  • Surveillance systems: This technology can be used in surveillance systems to ensure accurate color representation in images captured by different cameras.

Problems Solved

  • Color inconsistency: The technology solves the problem of color differences between images captured by different imaging devices.
  • Manual color correction: It eliminates the need for manual color correction of images captured by different devices, saving time and effort.

Benefits

  • Improved image quality: The technology ensures consistent and accurate color representation in images captured by different devices.
  • Time and cost savings: It eliminates the need for manual color correction, saving time and resources in post-processing.
  • Enhanced user experience: Users can rely on the technology to capture and produce images with consistent colors, leading to a better overall experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus acquires imaging parameters of a first imaging apparatus and a second imaging apparatus, and based on the imaging parameters, determines a number of first images to be captured by the first imaging apparatus and a number of second images to be captured by the second imaging apparatus. Further, the information processing apparatus acquires first color information included in the first images and second color information included in the second images, and based on the first color information and the second color information, generates color correction information for correcting a difference in color between the first and second images.
