  • Patent number: 12639889
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for processing a 3D scene are presented. Techniques are disclosed for determining light source locations, including tracking a current viewpoint of a camera capturing object(s) in a 3D scene and determining a reference viewpoint relative to the current viewpoint of the camera. According to aspects, a light source location is determined by obtaining a registered map of real cast shadows of the object(s) from an input image captured by the camera, registered with respect to the reference viewpoint. Then, for candidates of light sources, obtaining respective maps of virtual shadows of the object(s) created with respect to the reference viewpoint, and determining the location of the light source based on the candidates of light sources with respective maps of virtual shadows that match the registered map of real cast shadows.

  • Patent number: 12591242
    Abstract: A robot (20) includes a base (203, 204) and a detachable probe (205). The probe (205) includes at least one sensor of a least one type. Propulsion of the probe is provided by an ejection mechanism (204, 302) in the base. When the probe is ejected by the base, the probe captures data using its sensor(s) during its trajectory, according to an observation plan established by the base. The probe is recaptured by the base, probe data is transferred to the base, and the probe (205) is configured for a new observation.

  • Patent number: 12380635
    Abstract: Estimating lighting conditions in a mixed reality scene is a challenging task. Adding shadows cast by virtual objects in the scene contributes significantly to the user experience. To this end, there is proposed, among others, a method for an autonomously movable device having a camera. The device may move to a first position in the scene and capture a first image of a shadow of the device cast by a light source. The device may move to a second position in the scene and capture a second image of a shadow of the device cast by a light source. Features of the light source may be determined at each of the first and the second positions, and a lighting model may be determined for the scene based on the determined features of the light source in the scene.
