  • Patent number: 9860537
    Abstract: Systems and methods for converting multi-focus image data into a compressed video format. Multi-focus image data of a scene may be sampled to generate a stack of images spanning multiple focal depths. Each image focal distance is mapped to a time stamp and a video encoder is employed to generate a compressed video stream of scene information. In further embodiments, the video encoded scene information is decoded and frames from the stream selected for display based on the focal distance-time stamp mapping. In further embodiments, multi-focus video data is encoded with consecutive frames spanning different focal distances defining a Group of Pictures (GOP), and/or spanning different hierarchical layers.

  • Patent number: 9706086
    Abstract: A camera affixed to a device including a display has the display viewer within the camera field of view (FOV). The camera is employed to track the movement of the display viewer's eyes and/or face and/or head with respect to the camera and display. A relative motion is determined based on the camera viewer tracking data. Content frame position within the display screen area is compensated based on the relative motion and displayed on the screen for a better, less-irritating viewing experience.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with telemetry based feedback for improved media streaming are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include one or more processors, devices, and/or circuitry to obtain telemetry data corresponding to a plurality of sources, and to utilize the telemetry data to determine whether neighboring peer-to-peer wireless media streams associated with the plurality of sources are to operate at a same time on a same channel or are presently operating at the same time on the same channel. The one or more processors, devices, and/or circuitry may be to transmit signaling associated with a channel change recommendation in response to determining that the neighboring peer-to-peer wireless media streams are to operate at the same time on the same channel or are presently operating at the same time on the same channel. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

  • Publication number: 20170134746
    Abstract: Video stabilization is described that is assisted by motion vectors. In one example global motion is estimated using global motion vectors in a compressed video stream. An object of interest is detected in the compressed video stream and motion of the object of interest is tracked in the compressed video stream using object motion vectors. Frames of the compressed video stream are adjusted to reduce motion of the object of interest using the object motion vectors.

  • Publication number: 20170070740
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for combining sub-sampled chroma samples across multiple frames to include all color information for a given scene. In accordance with some embodiments, each frame may be encoded such that it contains different color samples in a sub-sampled color format. A sliding window across the desired number of frames, which can be varied based on the level of sub-sampling, may select the frames with the sub-sampled color data to be used for combination to recreate the scene with all color information, in accordance with some embodiments. The disclosed techniques can be used, for example, in the transfer and rendering of streaming or stored compressed video content that includes text. To such ends, the disclosed techniques can be used in any one, or combination, of RGB-YUV conversion, video encoding, and video frame combination. More generally, the disclosed techniques can be utilized in video content creation, as well as consumption.
