DIGITAL IMAGE SUB-DIVISION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17662061 titled 'DIGITAL IMAGE SUB-DIVISION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for processing digital images using a computer.

  • The method involves receiving a digital image captured by a real camera, which has intrinsic and extrinsic parameters.
  • The intrinsic parameters include a native principal point, which is defined relative to the origin of a coordinate system of the digital image.
  • The digital image is divided into multiple sub-images.
  • Each sub-image is associated with a synthesized recapture camera, which has synthesized intrinsic and extrinsic parameters mapped from the real camera.
  • The synthesized intrinsic parameters of the recapture camera also include the native principal point defined relative to the origin of the coordinate system of the sub-image.


Original Abstract Submitted

A digital image processing method performed by a computer is disclosed. A digital image captured by a real camera having intrinsic and extrinsic parameters is received. The intrinsic parameters include a native principal point defined relative to an origin of a coordinate system of the digital image. The digital image is sub-divided into a plurality of sub-images. For each sub-image of the plurality of sub-images, the sub-image is associated with a synthesized recapture camera having synthesized intrinsic and extrinsic parameters mapped from the real camera. The synthesized intrinsic parameters include the native principal point defined relative to an origin of a coordinate system of the sub-image.
