Patent number: 10951820Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for viewing panoramic images and videos through the selection of a particular viewing angle and window (zoom) within that panorama while allowing the viewer to simultaneously implement temporal transport control, allowing the video to be in a state of pause, play, fast forward, fast rewind, slow forward, slow rewind, or frame-by-frame. This capability may be used on video that is residing in memory on the viewer's viewing system, in a hard disk local to the viewer or in a shared location, or on a live buffered feed of video. A second capability of this apparatus and method relates to the use of a plurality of panoramic video or images from multiple synchronized cameras. In those cases, all panoramic video feeds are synchronized so that as a viewer pauses, rewinds, forwards a video in one panorama, all panoramas are time synchronized and go through the same states as the panorama being viewed.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2019Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Sankar Jayaram, Ritesh Kale, Charles Dechenne, John Harrison, Franklin W. Taylor, Vikas K. Singh

Patent number: 9241103Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for viewing panoramic images and videos through the selection of a particular viewing angle and window within that panorama while allowing the viewer to simultaneously implement temporal transport control, and allowing the video to be in a state of pause, play, fast forward, fast rewind, slow forward, slow rewind, or frame-by-frame. A plurality of panoramic video or images from multiple cameras can be synchronized so that as a viewer pauses, rewinds, forwards a video in one panorama, and all panoramas are time synchronized and go through the same states as the panorama being viewed. When the user selects a different panorama for viewing from a different camera, this panorama comes up in the same state as the panorama previously being viewed.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: January 19, 2016Assignee: Voke Inc.Inventors: Sankar Jayaram, Ritesh Kale, Charles DeChenne, John Harrison, Franklin W.

Publication number: 20100198565Abstract: A system having a server having processing circuitry and an operation manager configured to compare source geometric data of each of a plurality of features in a source geometric model with target geometric data of respective features in a target geometric model, and operative to identify discrepancies in respective features therebetween. The server is configured to rectify discrepancies in a feature after generating the feature and prior to generating another feature among the plurality of features. The system further includes a communication link, at least one client communicating with the server over the communication link, and an interrupt interface provided by one of the at least one client and the server and operative to notify a user of the presence of an inability to automatically generate an accurate representation of a feature of the source geometric model in the target geometric model.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2010Publication date: August 5, 2010Applicant: TRANSLATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Sankar Jayaram, Uma Jayaram, David M.
