Patent number: 11481949Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method that provides tools for defining a scene including media objects in a multi-dimensional space. The method provides a set of user interface tools for adjusting a region of focus for rendering the space from a particular location within a particular field of view. In some embodiments, the region of focus is a first region in the space within the particular field of view and the space further includes a second region outside of the region of focus within the particular field of view. In some embodiments, the method also provides a set of effects for applying to the second region but not the first region to visually indicate the first region as the region of focus within the space and the second region as a region outside of the region of focus within the space.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Stephen Sheeler, Gregory Niles, Gregory B.

Patent number: 8502817Abstract: A method of associating a computer generated camera with an object in a three-dimensional computer generated space. The method receives a command to associate the camera with an object in the simulated space. Based on the command the method determines a path for moving the camera to a position near the object and aiming the camera at the object. The method creates a video from the simulated camera's perspective of the three-dimensional simulated space.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2011Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Sidhartha Deb, Gregory Niles, Stephen Sheeler, Guido Hucking

Patent number: 6873344Abstract: A system for processing images, or clips, as, for example, in a movie or video post production system. The clips are associated with a flowgraph representation that visually depicts all of the operations used to generate the clips. Correspondence between the image and flowgraph representations is tightly maintained so that the user can conveniently switch between, and work among, the different representations. Efficient user interface mechanisms are provided to work with flowgraph items to construct nodes representing operations. Nodes can be joined in an automated, or assisted, manner. Flowgraphs can be automatically generated according to user inputs in other parts of the system. For example, layered effects can have flowgraphs that are automatically generated. A freehand drawing timing capture tool is provided. All operations that contribute to a single (or more) pixel's value can be listed and selectively activated or deactivated to detect a problem.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2001Date of Patent: March 29, 2005Assignees: Sony Corporation, Sony Electronics Inc.Inventors: Sukendeep Samra, Bruno Sargeant, Junichi Tsukamoto, Sidhartha Deb, Makoto Kawamura, Shingo Kawabe, Mark A. van den Bergen, Farhana Bandukwala
