  • Publication number: 20190208124
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for overcapture storytelling. In one aspect, a method for the display of post-processed captured content is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes analyzing captured panoramic video content for portions that satisfy a cinematic criteria; presenting options to a user of available cinematic styles pursuant to the satisfied cinematic criteria; receiving a selection in accordance with the presented options; post-processing the captured panoramic video content in accordance with the received selection; and causing display of the post-processed captured panoramic video content. In some implementations, the analysis of captured panoramic video content is performed via the use of metadata associated with the captured panoramic video content. Image capture devices, computing systems, computer-readable apparatus and integrated circuit apparatus are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10341562
    Abstract: Video information generated by an image sensor for a capture period and motion information of the image sensor during the capture period may be obtained. The video information may define images of a video based on light received within a field of view of an image sensor during the capture period. Relative positions of the image sensor between different moments within the capture period may be estimated based on the motion information. Depth information for a portion of an environment of the image sensor may be determined based on the video information generated at the different moments and the relative positions of the image sensor between the different moments, or based on stereo depth mapping. A translational motion correction may be applied to one or more of the images based on the depth information and the relative positions of the image sensor to warp the image(s) and stabilize the video.

  • Patent number: 10248866
    Abstract: Audio content may be captured during capture of spherical video content. An audio event within the audio content may indicate an occurrence of a highlight event based on sound(s) originating from audio source(s) captured within an audio event extent within the spherical video content at an audio event moment. Temporal type of the audio event providing guidance with respect to relative temporality of the highlight event with respect to the audio event and spatial type of the audio event providing guidance with respect to relative spatiality of the highlight event with respect to the audio event may be determined. A highlight event moment of the highlight event may be identified based on the audio event moment and temporal type of the audio event. A highlight event extent of the highlight event may be identified based on the audio event extent and the spatial type of the audio event.
