IMAGE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND IMAGE TRANSMISSION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18335735 titled 'IMAGE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND IMAGE TRANSMISSION METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The image transmission system described in the patent application consists of five steps:
1. Acquiring a first image: This step involves capturing an image of a person in a specific area using a camera.
2. Generating a first person silhouette image: The system creates a silhouette image that represents the outline of the person shown in the first image.
3. Projecting or displaying the silhouette image: The silhouette image is projected or displayed on an object in a different area from where the person is located.
4. Determining a first trigger action: The system analyzes the first image to determine if the person in the image performs a specific action or trigger.
5. Projecting or displaying a first person detailed image: If the person performs the trigger action, a detailed image of the person is projected or displayed on the object. This detailed image is closer to a real image of the person compared to the silhouette image.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Surveillance systems: The system can be used for monitoring and identifying individuals in specific areas, such as airports or public spaces.
- Augmented reality: The projected or displayed images can enhance the user's perception of their surroundings, providing additional information or visual effects.
- Advertising and marketing: The system can be used to project or display targeted advertisements or promotional content on objects in public spaces.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Enhanced identification: The system allows for the identification of individuals based on their appearance and actions, providing a more detailed and accurate representation compared to traditional surveillance systems.
- Improved user experience: By projecting or displaying detailed images, the system enhances the user's interaction with their environment, providing a more immersive and engaging experience.
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased security: The system enables better surveillance and identification of individuals, enhancing security measures in various settings.
- Enhanced visual communication: The projected or displayed images provide a more visually appealing and informative way of conveying information or messages to users.
- Improved advertising effectiveness: By targeting specific individuals or groups with personalized content, the system can increase the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Original Abstract Submitted
The image transmission system executes the following five steps. The first step is acquiring a first image by capturing a first person present in a first area by a first camera. The second step is generating a first person silhouette image representing a silhouette of the first person shown in the first image. The third step is projecting or displaying the first person silhouette image on a second object installed in a second area that is different from the first area. The fourth step is determining whether or not the first person performs a first trigger action based on the first image. Fifth step is when the first person performs the first trigger action, projecting or displaying a first person detailed image on the second object, wherein the first person detailed image is closer to a real image of the first person than the first person silhouette image is.
