INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240281982 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a control unit that corrects the color tone and adds shadows to images by using a calibration image as a reference.

  • Acquires an actual image captured by the imaging unit
  • Acquires a calibration image from the past to serve as a reference for the current background
  • Generates a model to estimate regions with shadows and correct color tones
  • Adds shadows to the calibration image based on the model
  • Corrects color tones and generates an estimated background image

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Correction of color tone in images
  • Addition of shadows to images
  • Use of calibration images for reference
  • Estimation of shadow regions
  • Generation of corrected background images

Potential Applications: This technology can be used in:

  • Photography editing software
  • Video editing applications
  • Security camera systems
  • Medical imaging devices
  • Satellite imaging technology

Problems Solved:

  • Inaccurate color tones in images
  • Lack of shadows for realistic effects
  • Difficulty in estimating shadow regions
  • Limited background correction capabilities
  • Inconsistencies between actual and background images

Benefits:

  • Improved image quality
  • Realistic shadow effects
  • Enhanced color correction
  • Accurate background estimation
  • Seamless integration of shadows in images

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Image Correction and Shadow Addition Technology This technology can be utilized in various industries such as:

  • Graphic design
  • Advertising agencies
  • Film production companies
  • Surveillance systems
  • Medical imaging facilities

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in image correction and shadow addition technology to ensure optimal results in various industries.


Original Abstract Submitted

a control unit executes: acquiring an actual image that is an image captured by the imaging unit; acquiring a calibration image that is an image captured by the imaging unit in the past and serving as a reference for the current background; generating a model for estimating a region where a shadow exists and correcting the color tone; and adding a shadow corresponding to the actual image to the calibration image based on the calibration image and the model and correcting the color tone and generating an estimated background image, which is a corrected image and is a background image corresponding to the actual image.
