Patent number: 11671782Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for enhanced audio experiences in VR/AR applications. The apparatuses of this disclosure are adapted to record multiple binaural stereo pairs and play back select binaural pairs corresponding to users' head positions. A substantially spherical microarray is utilized in various embodiments for recording multiple binaural stereo pairs. A VR/AR headset is further adapted to track a user's head positions and dynamically play back binaural sound pairs corresponding to the head positions.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2019Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Huddly ASInventor: Stein Ove Eriksen

Patent number: 11205087Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for capturing time-stamped data from whiteboard video signals and producing high-resolution whiteboard images. Local patches around a multitude of pixels in the whiteboard are used in classifying background white pixels and foreground color pixels for each foreground marker color. Clustering is performed in alternative color spaces globally and locally in defining background white and each foreground marker color. Color normalization is performed for each foreground pixel classified as a foreground marker color and for each image sensor color plane separately utilizing the maximum local background white and the darkest pixel intensities in local patches. Strokes are reconstructed based on spline interpolation of inflection points of cross sections along the length of each stroke for a foreground marker color with a predetermined width.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2019Date of Patent: December 21, 2021Assignee: HUDDLY ASInventors: Anders Eikenes, Stein Ove Eriksen, Jan Tore Korneliussen, Eamonn Shaw

Patent number: 10511766Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for alleviating bandwidth limitations of video transmission and enhancing the quality of videos at a receiver. In particular, an improved video transmission system is provided for generating high-resolution videos. The systems have therein a transmitter and a receiver; the transmitter includes an outer encoder and a core encoder, while the receiver includes a core decoder and an outer decoder. The outer encoder is adapted to receive the video from a source and separately output a salient video and an encoded background, and the outer decoder is adapted to merge the background with the salient video thereby producing an enhanced video. Also provided is a system that simulates pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) operations without PTZ hardware. Further provided are methods for video transmission whereby a background model is initialized, a background independently encoded, updated incrementally, and the background and the updates transmitted independently from the video.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2017Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: HUDDLY ASInventors: Jan Tore Korneliussen, Anders Eikenes, Håvard Pedersen Alstad, Stein Ove Eriksen, Eamonn Shaw

Patent number: 10237548Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for alleviating bandwidth limitations of video transmission, enhancing the quality of videos at a receiver, and improving the VR/AR experience. In particular, an improved video transmission and rendering system is provided for generating high-resolution videos. The systems have therein a transmitter and a VR/AR receiver; the transmitter includes an outer encoder and a core encoder, while the receiver includes a core decoder and an outer decoder. The outer encoder is adapted to receive the video from a source and separately output a salient video and an encoded three-dimensional background, and the outer decoder is adapted to merge the background with the salient video thereby producing an augmented video. Also provided is a system that simulates pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) operations without PTZ hardware.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2016Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: Huddly ASInventors: Jan Tore Korneliussen, Anders Eikenes, Havard Pedersen Alstad, Stein Ove Eriksen, Eamonn Shaw
