IMAGE-MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18185981 titled 'IMAGE-MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES
The abstract describes a method for generating an image by obtaining two images with the same subjects, determining the gaze of one subject in the first image, and maintaining that subject in the second image while removing the other subject.
- Simplified Explanation:
- Method for generating an image by maintaining one subject based on their gaze and removing the other subject.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Obtaining two images with the same subjects. - Determining the gaze of one subject in the first image. - Maintaining the subject in the second image based on their gaze. - Removing the second subject from the second image.
