Publication number: 20230394744Abstract: Scene rendering apparatus for rendering a scene from a 3D scene description data, configured to derive, from the 3D scene description data, first data defining a 3D object and second data defining an animation of the object and trigger condition information which defines a condition for viewing position and/or viewing orientation. Additionally, the scene rendering apparatus is configured to check whether the condition for viewing position and/or viewing orientation is met, and responsive to the condition for viewing position and/or viewing orientation being met, trigger the animation of the object.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Cornelius HELLGE, Thomas SCHIERL, Peter EISERT, Anna HILSMANN, Robert SKUPIN, Yago SÁNCHEZ DE LA FUENTE, Wieland MORGENSTERN, Gurdeep Singh BHULLAR

Publication number: 20230008125Abstract: The A method of augmenting a view of a real-world environment with a view of a volumetric video object on a user device is disclosed . The method includes determining a current pose information (CPI) indicating a current pose of the view of the real-world environment and a desired pose of the volumetric video object in the real-world environment. The method further includes sending the CPI to a remote server. The method further includes receiving a rendered view of the volumetric video object that has been rendered in accordance with the CPI from the remote server. The method also includes augmenting the view of the real-world environment by at least mapping the rendered view of the volumetric video object onto a planar mapping surface arranged according to the desired position of the volumetric video object.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2020Publication date: January 12, 2023Applicant: FRAUNHOFER-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FÖRDERUNG DER ANGEWANDTEN FORSCHUNG E.V.Inventors: Cornelius Hellge, Thomas Schierl, Peter Eisert, Anna Hilsmann, Robert Skupin, Yago Sanchez, Jangwoo Son, Gurdeep Singh Bhullar, Serhan Gül, Dimitri Podborski

Patent number: 11170202Abstract: An apparatus for performing 3D estimation on the basis of pictures of at least two different views includes a hypotheses provider, a similarity measure calculator, and a 3D information determiner. The hypotheses provider locally determines 3D information hypotheses for positions of a current picture of a first view on the basis of a pre-estimate which associates a 3D information estimate to each position of a picture of the first view. The similarity measure calculator calculates, for each position of the current picture of the first view, a hypotheses of the respective position by measuring a similarity between a region similarity measure for each of the 3D information of the current picture of the first view at the respective position and a corresponding region of a second view at a position displaced relative to the respective position by a respective 3D information hypothesis.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2018Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft zur Foerderung der angewandten Forschung e.

Patent number: 9947096Abstract: A method for generating 3D-information from multiple images showing a 3D scene from multiple perspectives has: providing at least two hypotheses for the 3D-information; performing a multi-hypotheses test by matching the at least two hypotheses to the multiple images and determining a test-result hypothesis that fulfills a particular matching criterion; updating the test-result hypothesis by varying a parameter set of the test-result hypothesis to further improve the matching criterion or another criterion; and determining the 3D-information on the basis of the parameter set of a resulting hypothesis provided by the action of updating the test-result hypothesis. A corresponding computer readable digital storage medium and a 3D-information generator are also described. Further embodiments perform a correspondence analysis between projections of spatio-temporal objects (STO) in multiple images to select a particular spatio-temporal object on the basis of said correspondence analysis.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2014Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: FRAUNHOFER-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FOERDERUNG DER ANGEWANDTEN FORSCHUNG e.V.Inventors: Nicole Atzpadin, Wolfgang Waizenegger, Oliver Schreer, Ingo Feldmann, Peter Kauff, Peter Eisert
