TERMINAL APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18530894 titled 'TERMINAL APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation: The terminal apparatus described in the patent application includes a display, multiple imagers, a communication interface, and a controller. The controller can transmit information to another terminal apparatus to generate a model image of the user based on captured images.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Display capable of showing images to the user
  • First imager in front of the display
  • Multiple second imagers behind the display
  • Controller communicates with other terminal apparatus
  • Model image of the user generated based on captured images

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in virtual reality applications, video conferencing, security systems, and personalized user interfaces.

Problems Solved: This technology allows for the creation of a model image of the user based on captured images, enhancing user experience and personalization.

Benefits:

  • Improved user experience
  • Personalized interactions
  • Enhanced security features

Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include virtual reality systems, video conferencing platforms, security systems, and personalized advertising.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the technology ensure the accuracy of the model image generated? 2. What are the potential privacy concerns associated with capturing and transmitting user images for model generation?

Frequently Updated Research: There may be ongoing research in the fields of computer vision, image processing, and human-computer interaction that could impact the development and implementation of this technology.


Original Abstract Submitted

A terminal apparatus includes a display configured to be capable of displaying an image to a user in front, a first imager provided around the display, a plurality of second imagers provided behind the display, a communication interface, and a controller configured to communicate by the communication interface, wherein the controller is configured to transmit, to another terminal apparatus, information for generating a model image representing the user, based on a captured image by a second imager that corresponds to the position of the user included in a captured image by the first imager, so that the other terminal apparatus displays the model image.
