ACCURATE CAMERA-DISPLAY CALIBRATION FOR TELEPRESENCE VIDEOCONFERENCING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18262813 titled 'ACCURATE CAMERA-DISPLAY CALIBRATION FOR TELEPRESENCE VIDEOCONFERENCING
The patent application discusses techniques for calibrating telepresence videoconferencing displays and cameras by providing 6 degrees of freedom (DoF) camera locations and orientation vectors in a display reference frame based on specified mirror-plane points and reflected display plane points.
- The specified mirror-plane points are located at fiducial markers printed on the mirror.
- The specified reflected display plane points are located in a checkerboard pattern of fiducial markers on the display.
Potential Applications: - Telepresence videoconferencing systems - Virtual reality applications - Augmented reality applications
Problems Solved: - Ensuring accurate calibration of telepresence videoconferencing displays and cameras - Improproving the overall quality and accuracy of virtual interactions
Benefits: - Enhanced user experience in telepresence videoconferencing - Improved accuracy and realism in virtual reality and augmented reality applications
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Calibration Techniques for Telepresence Systems This technology could be used in telepresence systems for business meetings, remote collaboration, virtual events, and training simulations. It could also be applied in the gaming industry for immersive virtual reality experiences.

Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques of calibrating telepresence videoconferencing displays and cameras include providing 6 DoF camera locations and orientation vectors in display reference frame based on a plurality of images that indicate specified mirror-plane points of a mirror and specified reflected display plane points. In some implementations. the specified mirror-plane points are located at fiducial markers printed on the mirror. In some implementations. the specified reflected display plane points are located in a checkerboard pattern of fiducial markers on the display.
