AUTOMATED VISUAL TRIGGER PROFILING AND DETECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17828775 titled 'AUTOMATED VISUAL TRIGGER PROFILING AND DETECTION
Simplified Explanation
- This patent application describes a system and method for automatically detecting and modifying visual triggers in virtual environments. - A visual trigger profile is created and stored in memory, which includes characteristics associated with a specific type of visual sensitivity. - Buffered frames of an audiovisual stream that have not yet been displayed are monitored to identify when they contain a certain level of visual trigger characteristics. - If a frame is identified as containing the visual trigger characteristics, a modification is applied to decrease the level of these characteristics. - The modified frames are then presented during the audiovisual stream instead of the original frames.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods for automated visual trigger profiling and detection within virtual environments are provided. A visual trigger profile may be stored in memory that includes a set of visual trigger characteristics associated with a type of visual sensitivity. Buffered frames of an audiovisual stream that have not yet been displayed may be monitored to identify when a buffered frame includes a threshold level of the visual trigger characteristics associated with the visual sensitivity. A frame modification that decreases the level of the detected visual trigger characteristics associated with the visual sensitivity may be identified and applied to the identified frames. The modified frames may thereafter be presented during the audiovisual stream in place of the original (unmodified) identified frames.
