==SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DEPTH-BASED MEASUREMENT IN A THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIEW - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240341568 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DEPTH-BASED MEASUREMENT IN A THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIEW

The abstract describes a system that utilizes computer-readable instructions to receive endoscope calibration data, generate a virtual camera, create an endoscopic image, receive marked points in the image, and determine if a 3D surface model has been generated. If a surface model exists, a perturbation in the virtual camera is generated, and a curvilinear segment on the surface model is created between the marked points. A mixed reality image is then generated, combining the curvilinear segment and the endoscopic image.

* System receives endoscope calibration data
* Generates a virtual camera based on the calibration data
* Creates an endoscopic image
* Receives marked points in the image
* Determines if a 3D surface model has been generated
* Generates a perturbation in the virtual camera if a surface model exists
* Creates a curvilinear segment on the surface model between marked points
* Generates a mixed reality image combining the segment and the endoscopic image

==Original Abstract Submitted==

a system may comprise a processor and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon. the computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the system to receive endoscope calibration data, generate a virtual camera based on the calibration data, generate an endoscopic image, receive first and second marked points in the endoscopic image, and determine if a three-dimensional surface model has been generated. if a surface model has been generated, a perturbation in the virtual camera is generated. a curvilinear segment on the surface model may be generated between the first and second marked points and a mixed reality image, including the curvilinear segment and the endoscopic image, may be generated.
