Abstract: Variable image projection for spherical visual content may be provided by obtaining visual information defining an image of the spherical visual content and a field of view for the spherical visual content. A location of a projection point may be determined based on the field of view. A two-dimensional projection of the spherical visual content may be determined by projecting pixels of the image within the field of view to the two-dimensional projection plane. Individuals pixels of the image may be projected along individual projection lines including the projection point and the individual pixel. Presentation of the two-dimensional projection of the spherical visual content may be effectuated.
Abstract: In a home system in which a TV receives video from various sources over directional wireless links such as 60 GHz links, a mirror apparatus is provided that can be configured to physically steer a signal toward a receiver on the TV to optimize received signal strength. In this way, RF energy that otherwise would be radiated in non-productive directions away from the receiver is reflected toward the receiver.
