  • Displaying relative motion of objects in an image
    Patent number: 9449234
    Abstract: In a method for visualizing motion of an object in an image, at least two images, including a first image and a second image, wherein each of the at least two images includes an object are received. One or more processors determine a first distance value for the object in the first image and a second distance value for the object in the second image, wherein each distance value is based on a distance between the object and an image capturing device. One or more processors compare the first distance value to the second distance value to determine a difference between the first distance value and the second distance value. One or more processors generate an indication based on the determined difference between the first distance value and the second distance value.
