  • Publication number: 20220335579
    Abstract: Devices, methods, and non-transitory program storage devices are disclosed herein to provide for improved perspective distortion correction for wide field of view (FOV) video image streams. The techniques disclosed herein may be configured, such that the distortion correction applied to requested region of interest (ROI) portions taken from individual images of the wide FOV video image stream smoothly transitions between applying different distortion correction to ROIs, depending on their respective FOVs. In particular, the techniques disclosed herein may modify the types and/or amounts of perspective distortion correction applied, based on the FOVs of the ROIs, as well as their location within the original wide FOV video image stream. In some cases, additional perspective distortion correction may also be applied to account for tilt in an image capture device as the wide FOV video image stream is being captured and/or the unwanted inclusion of “invalid” pixels from the wide FOV image.

  • Patent number: 11276145
    Abstract: Systems and methods for stitching videos are disclosed. Image-based registration between frames from a first video source and frames from a second video source is performed at a first rate. Calibration-based registration between frames from the first video source and frames from the second video source are performed at a second rate higher than the first rate. Then, for a first frame from the first video source for which calibration-based registration data and image-based registration data have been generated, a stitching transform that maps the first frame to a counterpart frame from the second video source based on image-based registration data is generated. A delta transform from the image-based registration data and the calibration-based registration data at the first frame is also derived.

  • Patent number: 11277553
    Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically selecting between multiple image capture subsystems with overlapping fields of view but different optical properties. A selection may be made by estimating a plurality of operational characteristics of an image capture event, and, based on those estimates, selecting a primary image capture subsystem for the image capture event. For example, in a device such as a cellphone comprising two capture subsystems, each subsystem including a lens system and sensor system where each subsystem has a different fixed optical zoom parameter, a subsystem can be chosen based on a combination of desired zoom value, estimated focus distance, and estimated scene brightness.
