Abstract: A color image and a depth image of a live video are received. A user is extracted from the information of the color image and the depth image. Spurious depth vales may be corrected. Points or pixels of an image as seen from a viewpoint of a reference camera at a reference camera location are mapped to points of the image as would be seen from a viewpoint of a virtual camera at a virtual camera location. As such, a transformed color image is generated. Disoccluded pixels may be processed to address any gaps within the transformed color image.

Abstract: A color image and a depth image of a live video are received. Each of the color image and the depth image are processed to identify a foreground, background, and an unknown region band of the live video. The unknown region band may comprise pixels between the foreground and the background. Further processing is performed to segment the pixels of the unknown region band between the foreground and the background. As such, processing is performed on the unknown region band in order to provide an improved user foreground video.

Abstract: A clor image and a depth image of a live video are received. Each of the color image and the depth image are processed to identify the foreground and the background of the live video. The background of the live video is removed in order to create a foreground video that comprises the foreground of the live video. A control input may be received to control the embedding of the foreground video into a second background from a background feed. The background feed may also comprise virtual objects such that the foreground video may interact with the virtual objects.

Abstract: Signal processors, signal processing methods, and digital filter configuration methods are discussed. In one arrangement, a signal processor includes a common node; a plurality of channels, each channel of the plurality comprising an analog filter, a sampler, and a digital filter and each channel of the plurality being configured to generate an intermediate digital signal using an analog signal presented at the common node; and processing circuitry configured form a digital signal representing the analog signal from the intermediate digital signals.

Abstract: The present application describes an apparatus that includes a radar antenna device to acquire synthetic aperture radar data, radar receiver and transmitter equipment coupled to the radar antenna device, and a synthetic aperture radar processing device in communication with the radar receiver and transmitter equipment. This processing device includes a processor structured to process the synthetic aperture radar data, which is representative of a defocused image. The processor is further structured to define an image processing constraint corresponding to an image region expected to have a low radar return and generate one or more output signals as a function of the image processing constraint and the data. The one or more output signals are representative of a more focused form of the defocused image.
