    摘要: Techniques for rendering a scene are disclosed. In some embodiments, a scene definition is modified to generate a modified scene definition based at least in part on a current state of a local database at a device. The modified scene definition is constrained to include references to objects locally available in the local database, and at least one object referenced in the scene definition is substituted with a different object in the modified scene definition that is locally available in the local database. The scene is rendered at the device according to the modified scene definition.

    摘要: Techniques for generating a prescribed perspective of a composite object are disclosed. In some embodiments, a specification of a composite object comprising a plurality of objects is specified using object views of the plurality of objects that comprise a fixed depth, and a prescribed perspective of the composite object is at least in part generated by populating the prescribed perspective of the composite object with pixels from existing images of the plurality of objects.

    摘要: Various techniques associated with automatic mesh generation are disclosed. One or more center curves of an outline of an object or figure are first determined. Next, for each of a plurality of points of each of the one or more center curves, a pair of rays is cast from a center curve in opposite directions, wherein the rays collide with opposite sides of the outline, and a collision pair is generated that comprises a line connecting collision points of the pair of rays on opposite sides of the outline. A mesh model of the object or figure is generated by mapping each of a set of collision pairs to polygons used to define the mesh model.

    摘要: Improved techniques for generating video content are disclosed. In some embodiments, it is determined whether a frame comprising a scene is an independent frame or a predictive frame. In the event that the frame is an independent frame, the frame is encoded independently. In the event that the frame is a predictive frame, block differences and motion vectors are encoded, wherein motion vectors are determined from a known three-dimensional model and time evolution of the scene.

    摘要: Two-dimensional compositing that preserves the curvatures of non-flat surfaces is disclosed. In some embodiments, a mapping is associated with a two-dimensional rendering that maps a potentially variable portion of the two-dimensional rendering to a canvas. The mapping is generated from a three-dimensional model of the potentially variable portion of the two-dimensional rendering. The potentially variable portion of the two-dimensional rendering is dynamically modified according to the mapping to reflect content comprising the canvas or edits received with respect to the canvas.

    摘要: A content generation platform is generally described herein. More specifically, interactive image generation and techniques and features thereof are disclosed herein. One or more sets of images of a scene are captured in an imaging studio. The captured one or more sets of images of the scene are processed using one or more machine learning based networks to generate an interactive image of the scene comprising a plurality of interactive features. One or more of the plurality of interactive features of the generated interactive image may be modified or edited according to user preferences.
