  • Augmented reality system
    Patent number: 7301547
    Abstract: A virtual reality system surveys a real-world environment, generates 3D data that defines the real-world environment, renders a virtual 3D environment using the 3D data, retrieves a virtual object from a database comprised of pre-stored virtual objects, renders the virtual object in the virtual 3D environment, and re-positions the virtual object in the virtual 3D environment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 22, 2002
    Date of Patent: November 27, 2007
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Fernando C. M. Martins, Stephen Junkins, Jason E. Plumb
  • Shading of images using texture
    Patent number: 7245305
    Abstract: Colors are obtained and used to shade two-dimensional non-photo realistic images of three-dimensional models. The colors are stored as texels in texture maps. The texels are chosen to shade the images based on their orientation in a scene. The colors may be obtained once, in a pre-rendering process. The colors may then be selected in a run-time process.

  • Portable virtual reality
    Patent number: 7113618
    Abstract: Portable virtual reality is disclosed. A digital camera captures an input video stream comprising video frames that carry information about a surrounding environment limited by a field of view of the camera. The input video stream is processed by a handheld computer coupled to the camera. Parameters that define a rendered scene of a virtual environment are adjusted based upon motion parameters extracted from the input video stream by the handheld computer during the processing.

  • Camera driven virtual workspace management
    Patent number: 6927757
    Abstract: Camera driven virtual workspace management is disclosed. A digital camera captures an input video stream comprising images of a surrounding environment limited by a field of view of the camera. The input video stream is processed by a handheld computer coupled to the camera. Parameters that define a partial view of a virtual workspace are redefined based upon motion analysis of the input video stream performed by the handheld computer during the processing.
