  • Patent number: 10847117
    Abstract: An augmented reality display alternates between displaying color frames and alpha frames to generate composite images for transparency control. A display processor includes two sets of buffers, each set including a color frame buffer and an alpha frame buffer. One set of buffers is used to provide data to the display while new video data is being written into the other set of buffers. The display processor switches which set of buffers is providing data and which set of buffers is having new video data written into them. By switching the alpha and color frame buffers in sets, a pair of color frame buffer and alpha frame buffer are always the current set of buffers to provide data as the output. If a frame drop occurs and the next color frame or alpha frame is not ready, the set of buffers is not switched to avoid disturbing flashing visual artifacts.

  • Publication number: 20200311901
    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a framework for classifying images. In some embodiments, it is determined whether an image includes synthetic image content. If it does, characteristics of the image are analyzed to determine if the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images (e.g., possess a threshold equivalency of pixel values among the top and/or bottom boundaries of the image, or a difference between summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the right vertical boundary of the image and summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the left vertical boundary of the image being less than or equal to a threshold value). If the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images, the image is classified as a synthetic panoramic image. If the image is determined to not include synthetic image content, a neural network is applied to the image and the image is classified as one of non-synthetic panoramic or non-synthetic non-panoramic.
