Abstract: Various methods and systems are disclosed for near-infrared video compositing techniques and an associated immersive video environment. In an example, a system includes: a system having a visible light sensor and an infrared sensor to capture light from a field of view, and a display screen to reflect a video output projected from a display source. In this system configuration, the display screen is arranged relative to the system to allow infrared light and visible light from a field of view to travel through the display screen and reach the sensors of the camera system, for example, using a hot mirror, a cold mirror, or a beam-splitter.

Abstract: Various methods and systems are disclosed for near-infrared video compositing techniques and an associated immersive video environment. In an example, a video environment includes: a visible light camera and an infrared detection camera arranged to capture video from a performance area; a visible light source and infrared light source arranged to emit visible light onto the performance area; a display source to provide video output; and a display screen arranged in the performance area between the camera system and the infrared light source. The display screen is further arranged to reflect visible light originating from the display source, while permitting infrared and visible light from the performance area to reach the cameras. In a further example, the system includes a backdrop integrating the infrared light source, as infrared light from the infrared light source passes through the backdrop into the performance area.

Abstract: Various methods and systems are disclosed for near-infrared video compositing techniques and an associated immersive video environment. In an example, a system includes: a dual camera system having a visible light camera and an infrared camera to capture light from a field of view; and a display screen to reflect a video output projected from a display source. In this system configuration, the display screen is arranged relative to the dual camera system to allow infrared light and visible light from a field of view to travel through the display screen and reach the cameras of the dual camera system. In an example, the video output provides real-time video captured from the visible light camera, an information from the infrared camera is used to create a matte of an object in the field of view within the real-time video captured from the visible light camera.
