Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to generation of an output hyper-lapse video from an input video. A smoothed camera path can be computed based upon the input video. Further, output camera poses can be selected from the smoothed camera path for output frames of the output hyper-lapse video. One or more selected input frames from the input video can be chosen for an output frame. The selected input frames can be chosen based at least in part upon an output camera pose for the output frame. Moreover, the selected input frames can be combined to render the output frame. Choosing selected input frames from the input video and combining the selected input frames can be performed for each of the output frames of the output hyper-lapse video.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for generating a panorama packet and/or for utilizing a panorama packet. That is, a panorama packet may be generated and/or consumed to provide an interactive panorama view experience of a scene depicted by one or more input images within the panorama packet (e.g., a user may explore the scene through multi-dimensional navigation of a panorama generated from the panorama packet). The panorama packet may comprise a set of input images may depict the scene from various viewpoints. The panorama packet may comprise a camera pose manifold that may define one or more perspectives of the scene that may be used to generate a current view of the scene. The panorama packet may comprise a coarse geometry corresponding to a multi-dimensional representation of a surface of the scene. An interactive panorama of the scene may be generated based upon the panorama packet.

Abstract: Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for defining transition zones for navigating a visualization. The visualization may be constructed from geometry of a scene and one or more texture images depicted the scene from various viewpoints. A transition zone may correspond to portions of the visualization that do not have a one-to-one correspondence with a single texture image, but are generated from textured geometry (e.g., a projection of texture imagery onto the geometry). Because a translated view may have visual error (e.g., a portion of the translated view is not correctly represented by the textured geometry), one or more transition zones, specifying translated view experiences (e.g., unrestricted view navigation, restricted view navigation, etc.), may be defined. For example, a snapback force may be applied when a current view corresponds to a transition zone having a relatively higher error.

Abstract: Described is a technology by which an image such as a stitched panorama is automatically cropped based upon predicted quality data with respect to filling missing pixels. The image may be completed, including by completing only those missing pixels that remain after cropping. Predicting quality data may be based on using restricted search spaces corresponding to the missing pixels. The crop is computed based upon the quality data, in which the crop is biased towards including original pixels and excluding predicted low quality pixels. Missing pixels are completed by using restricted search spaces to find replacement values for the missing pixels, and may use histogram matching for texture synthesis.

Abstract: The present invention encompasses polymer compositions comprising aliphatic polycarbonate chains containing sites of olefinic unsaturation. In certain embodiments the aliphatic polycarbonate chains comprise sites of olefinic unsaturation capable of participating in radical-promoted olefin polymerizations. In certain embodiments, the invention encompasses composites formed by the polymerization or cross-linking of a combination of olefinic monomers and aliphatic polycarbonate chains containing sites of olefinic unsaturation.

Abstract: An advanced floor mat is disclosed. In an embodiment of the present invention, the floor mat includes a cleanable portion. The floor mat may also include a water dissipation component, a water absorbing component, a cushioning component, customized graphics, a transparent cleanable portion, a tacky surface on the cleanable portion, an antibacterial composition, an antifungal composition, and a fragrance. The cleanable portion may be erodible and may include a plurality of cleanable reusable layers. If a tacky surface is included in the floor mat, an anti-slip feature may be associated with the tacky surface to help prevent slipping on a possibly wet tacky surface. Additionally, a sensor system may be included in the floor mat to assist a user in identifying when the floor mat may require cleaning.
