  • Real-time compositing in mixed reality
    Patent number: 10943405
    Abstract: A system may include a memory device to store instructions and data, and at least one processing device to execute the instructions stored in the memory device to: receive a background image and a digital object to be composited onto the background image in a mixed reality view, generate a 2D bounding region for the digital object, select a version of the background image at a pre-defined resolution, overlay the 2D bounding region on the selected version of the background image and obtain a set of samples of the colors of pixels of the selected version along a perimeter of the 2D bounding region, and determine a value for one or more digital lighting sources to illuminate the digital object in the mixed reality view, based, at least in part, on the set of samples.
    Type: Grant
