  • Patent number: 11062518
    Abstract: A method for displaying a mixed reality image, including provision of a display assembly including a camera and a display, acquisition of a first image by the camera according to actual image capturing characteristics, the first image being an image of a scene in the field of view of a user, extraction, from the first image, of actual illumination and position characteristics, selection of virtual elements to be integrated into the first image, modification of the virtual elements according to the actual image capturing, illumination and position characteristics, integration of the modified virtual elements in the first image to obtain a second image, and display of the second image on the display.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20200012335
    Abstract: An individual visual immersion device for a moving person including means for placing the device on the person and for displaying immersive images in front of the person's eyes, a stereoscopic camera, means for, during an initialization phase of the device in an operating zone including static obstacles, the device being moved in the operating zone, recording stereoscopic images of the operating zone from several points of view using the camera, then merging the images into a model of the operating zone, and interpreting the model to create a three-dimensional map of obstacles identified in the operating zone, and means for, during a usage phase of the device in the operating zone, the device being worn by a user, detecting whether the user is approaching one of the static obstacles identified in the map and then triggering an alert process.

  • Publication number: 20190297319
    Abstract: Individual visual immersion device for a moving person, comprising a means for placing the device on the person and a means for displaying immersive images in front of the eyes of the person, characterised in that it further comprises a stereoscopic image sensor (A) for generating two synchronised image streams of a same scene taken at two distinct angles, a means for calculating a piece of information on the disparity between the images of pairs of synchronised images of the two streams (B, F1, F2), a means for calculating current movement characteristics of the device (C) from the piece of disparity information, and means for composing a stream of immersive images (D, E, H) that arc coherent with the movement characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20190104298
    Abstract: “Method for adjusting a stereoscopic imaging device including for each sensor, tagging, in an image arising from the sensor, one and the same reference object, evaluating a quantity representative of a focus of the optical system associated with the sensor on the reference object, in order to adjust settings of each of the optical systems associated with a respective sensor of the stereoscopic imaging device.

  • Publication number: 20190058869
    Abstract: A stereoscopic image-capturing apparatus includes a first digital image sensor, a second digital image sensor synchronized with the first sensor, at least one optical zoom with variable focal distance and associated with the first sensor or the second sensor, a digital zoomer for performing a digital zoom on a digital image coming from the second sensor, a resizer for choosing a resizing value to align an image to be aligned and coming from the first sensor and an image to be aligned and coming from the second sensor, and a depth map producer for producing a depth map.

  • Patent number: 10142615
    Abstract: A system for three-dimensional image capture while moving. The system includes: an image capture device including at least two digital image sensors placed to capture a stereoscopic image; a processor for obtaining disparity information, associated with the digital images obtained by the image capture device and movement speed of elements in the digital images; a transmitter for sending the digital images to enable control of movement based on the digital images and the associated disparity information; and a controller for controlling the image capture device.
