  • Patent number: 11783448
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for initiating transfer of image data corresponding to at least one predetermined level of an image pyramid comprising higher resolution to a graphic processing unit (GPU) of the computing device, calculating, by the central processing unit (CPU) of the computing device, optical flow of at least one predetermined coarse level of the image pyramid, transferring, by the CPU of the computing device, the calculated optical flow of the at least one predetermined coarse level of the image pyramid to the GPU, calculating, by the GPU of the computing device, the optical flow of the at least one predetermined level of the image pyramid comprising higher resolution, and outputting, by the GPU of the computing device, the optical flow of the image data.

  • Publication number: 20230274543
    Abstract: A mobile device can generate real-time complex visual image effects using asynchronous processing pipeline. A first pipeline applies a complex image process, such as a neural network, to keyframes of a live image sequence. A second pipeline generates flow maps that describe feature transformations in the image sequence. The flow maps can be used to process non-keyframes on the fly. The processed keyframes and non-keyframes can be used to display a complex visual effect on the mobile device in real-time or near real-time.
