IMAGE MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18480304 titled 'IMAGE MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system for modifying the scale and/or position of objects in images by obtaining a 2D input image, creating a 3D representation of the image, adjusting the pose of a target object in the 3D representation, and generating a modified 2D output image with the adjusted object.
- The system obtains a 2D input image from a camera.
- It creates a 3D representation of the 2D input image.
- The system determines a target object in the 2D input image.
- It adjusts the pose of the target object in the 3D representation.
- The system generates a modified 2D output image with the adjusted object.
Potential Applications

Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and techniques are described herein for modifying the scale and/or position of objects in images. For instance, a system can obtain a two-dimensional (2D) input image from a camera and a three-dimensional (3D) representation of the 2D input image. The system can further determine a first portion of the 3D representation of the 2D input image corresponding to a target object in the 2D input image. The system can adjust a pose of the first portion of the 3D representation of the 2D input image corresponding to the target object. The system can further generate a 2D output image having a modified version of the target object based on the adjusted pose of the first portion of the 3D representation of the 2D input image corresponding to the target object to be output on a display.
