  • Publication number: 20230196658
    Abstract: Images may be captured at an image capture device mounted on an image capture device gimbal capable of rotating the image capture device around a nodal point in one or more dimensions. Each of the plurality of images may be captured from a respective rotational position. The images may be captured by a designated camera that is not located at the nodal point in one or more of the respective rotational positions. A designated three-dimensional point cloud may be determined based on the plurality of images. The designated three-dimensional point cloud may include a plurality of points each having a respective position in a virtual three-dimensional space.

  • Publication number: 20210312702
    Abstract: Images of an object may be captured at a computing device. Each of the images may be captured from a respective viewpoint based on image capture configuration information identifying one or more parameter values. A multiview image digital media representation of the object may be generated that includes some or all of the images of the object and that is navigable in one or more dimensions.

  • Patent number: 10855936
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention relate generally to systems and methods for analyzing and manipulating images and video. In particular, a multi-view interactive digital media representation (MVIDMR) of a person can be generated from live images of a person captured from a hand-held camera. Using the image data from the live images, a skeleton of the person and a boundary between the person and a background can be determined from different viewing angles and across multiple images. Using the skeleton and the boundary data, effects can be added to the person, such as wings. The effects can change from image to image to account for the different viewing angles of the person captured in each image.
