  • Publication number: 20240098232
    Abstract: In one implementation, a method of performing perspective correction is performed by a device having a three-dimensional device coordinate system and including a first image sensor, a first display, one or more processors, and non-transitory memory. The method includes capturing, using the first image sensor, a first image of a physical environment. The method includes transforming the first image from a first perspective of the first image sensor to a second perspective based on a difference between the first perspective and the second perspective, wherein the second perspective is a first distance away from a location corresponding to a first eye of a user less than a second distance between the first perspective and the location corresponding to the first eye of the user. The method includes displaying, on the first display, the transformed first image of the physical environment.

  • Publication number: 20230377249
    Abstract: The method includes: obtaining a first image of an environment from a first image sensor associated with first intrinsic parameters; performing a warping operation on the first image according to perspective offset values to generate a warped first image in order to account for perspective differences between the first image sensor and a user of the electronic device; determining an occlusion mask based on the warped first image that includes a plurality of holes; obtaining a second image of the environment from a second image sensor associated with second intrinsic parameters; normalizing the second image based on a difference between the first and second intrinsic parameters to produce a normalized second image; and filling a first set of one or more holes of the occlusion mask based on the normalized second image to produce a modified first image.

  • Patent number: 11656457
    Abstract: In one implementation, a method includes obtaining an image. The method includes splitting the image to produce a high-frequency component image and a low-frequency component image. The method includes downsampling the low-frequency component image to generate a downsampled low-frequency component image. The method includes correcting color aberration of the downsampled low-frequency component image to generate a color-corrected downsampled low-frequency component image. The method includes upsampling the color-corrected downsampled low-frequency component image to generate a color-corrected low-frequency component image. The method includes combining the color-corrected low-frequency component image and the high-frequency component image to generate a color-corrected version of the image.

  • Publication number: 20190370942
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for correcting red-eye artifacts in a target image of a subject. Images, captured by a camera, including a raw image, are used to generate the target image. An eye region of the target image is modulated to correct for the red-eye artifacts, wherein correction is carried out based on information extracted from at least one of the raw image and the target image. Modulation comprises detecting landmarks associated with the eye region; estimating spectral response of the red eye artifacts; segmenting an image region of the eye based on the estimated spectral response of the red eye artifacts and the detected landmarks, forming a repair mask; and modifying an image region associated with the repair mask.

  • Patent number: 10109081
    Abstract: There is described herein a method for recovering missing information in diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) data. The data are modeled according to the theory of moving frames and regions where frame information is missing are reconstructed by performing diffusions into the regions. Local orthogonal frames computed along the boundary of the regions are rotated into the regions. Connection parameters are estimated at each new data point obtained by a preceding rotation, for application to a subsequent rotation.

  • Patent number: 9569887
    Abstract: The identification and determination of aspects of the construction of a patient's heart is important for cardiologists and cardiac surgeons in the diagnosis, analysis, treatment, and management of cardiac patients. For example minimally invasive heart surgery demands knowledge of heart geometry, heart fiber orientation, etc. While medical imaging has advanced significantly the accurate three dimensional (3D) rendering from a series of imaging slices remains a critical step in the planning and execution of patient treatment. Embodiments of the invention construct using diffuse MRI data 3D renderings from iterating connections forms derived from arbitrary smooth frame fields to not only corroborate biological measurements of heart fiber orientation but also provide novel biological views in respect of heart fiber orientation etc.
