Abstract: A method and system for determining a position and orientation of a receiver relative to a transmitter includes transmitted positioning signals having different frequency components that define a common period. One or more of the transmitted positioning signal have identifiable phase characteristics relative to the start of the common period. The positioning signals are received at the receiver. A time point corresponding to the start of the common period is determined from the received positioning signals. The polarities of the received signals can then be determined based on properties of the positioning signals relative to the start of the common period and relative to properties of the transmitted positioning signals. These polarities can be used to track a signed position and uniquely associated orientation of the receiver relative to the transmitter.

Abstract: An adjustment device and associated method is disclosed, for adjusting an equipment, such as a camera, having an actuator for adjusting a variable setting, such as a lens setting (focus, iris, zoom). A control system drives the actuator and command component of the adjustment device to reflect a position of the actuator. In a slave mode, the command component is driven by the control system. In an override mode, a manual operation of the command component drives the actuator of the equipment. Also disclosed are a method for building a model of a lens, a method for treating an image capture to produce a visual effect, a method for creating a node in a model representing a given space, a method for setting a node in a model based on a known node, and a method for calibrating a node in a model.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling a setting of an equipment related to image capture comprises capturing position data and orientation data of a sensing device; determining position information of a region of interest (i.e. a node) to be treated by the equipment, relative to the position and orientation data of the sensing device; and outputting a control signal directed to the equipment, in order to control in real-time the setting of the equipment based on said position information of the region of interest.
