APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A ROBOT PHOTOGRAPHER WITH SEMANTIC INTELLIGENCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18373078 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A ROBOT PHOTOGRAPHER WITH SEMANTIC INTELLIGENCE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device for controlling a photographic system that can generate event photos based on a user query and video stream.

  • The device obtains a video stream and user query for a target event.
  • It then extracts a set of photos from the video stream.
  • Utilizing a language model, it suggests at least one photoshoot idea based on the user query.
  • The device captures a photo for the target event based on the photoshoot suggestion.
  • It selects and outputs event photos from the set of photos and the snapped photo.

Potential Applications

This technology could be used in:

  • Event photography services
  • Social media platforms for event coverage
  • Automated photo editing software

Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device for controlling a photographic system may obtain a video stream and a user query for a target event, obtain a set of photos from the video stream, obtain at least one photoshoot suggestion based on the user query via a language model, obtain a snapped photo for the target event based on the at least one photoshoot suggestion, in response to a given video frame included in the video stream satisfying a target content criterion, and output one or more photos selected from the set of photos and the snapped photo as event photos.
