  • Patent number: 12541865
    Abstract: In various examples, systems and methods are disclosed relating to registering image processing with image registration for image generation and content stream applications. Systems and methods are disclosed for registering portions of images that are modified to incorporate content or features, with references images from which the portions of the images are identified. The systems and methods can transform the modified portions to more realistically and precisely merge back into the reference images, such as for presentation as a content stream.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230316458
    Abstract: In various examples, dynamic seam placement is used to position seams in regions of overlapping image data to avoid crossing salient objects or regions. Objects may be detected from image frames representing overlapping views of an environment surrounding an ego-object such as a vehicle. The images may be aligned to create an aligned composite image or surface (e.g., a panorama, a 360° image, bowl shaped surface) with regions of overlapping image data, and a representation of the detected objects and/or salient regions (e.g., a saliency mask) may be generated and projected onto the aligned composite image or surface. Seams may be positioned in the overlapping regions to avoid or minimize crossing salient pixels represented in the projected masks, and the image data may be blended at the seams to create a stitched image or surface (e.g., a stitched panorama, stitched 360° image, stitched textured surface).
