Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for improving facial recognition and/or speaker recognition models by using results obtained from one model to assist in generating results from the other model. For example, a device may perform facial recognition for image data to identify users and may use the results of the facial recognition to assist in speaker recognition for corresponding audio data. Alternatively or additionally, the device may perform speaker recognition for audio data to identify users and may use the results of the speaker recognition to assist in facial recognition for corresponding image data. As a result, the device may identify users in video data that are not included in the facial recognition model and may identify users in audio data that are not included in the speaker recognition model. The facial recognition and/or speaker recognition models may be updated during run-time and/or offline using post-processed data.

Abstract: A video capture device may include multiple cameras that simultaneously capture video data. The video capture device and/or one or more remote computing resources may stitch the video data captured by the multiple cameras to generate stitched video data that corresponds to 360° video. The remote computing resources may apply one or more algorithms to the stitched video data to adjust the color characteristics of the stitched video data, such as lighting, exposure, white balance contrast, and saturation. The remote computing resources may further smooth the transition between the video data captured by the multiple cameras to reduce artifacts such as abrupt changes in color as a result of the individual cameras of the video capture device having different video capture settings. The video capture device and/or the remote computing resources may generate a panoramic video that may include up to a 360° field of view.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for identifying content in video data and creating content-based zooming and panning effects to emphasize the content. Contents may be detected and analyzed in the video data using computer vision, machine learning algorithms or specified through a user interface. Panning and zooming controls may be associated with the contents, panning or zooming based on a location and size of content within the video data. The device may determine a number of pixels associated with content and may frame the content to be a certain percentage of the edited video data, such as a close-up shot where a subject is displayed as 50% of the viewing frame. The device may identify an event of interest, may determine multiple frames associated with the event of interest and may pan and zoom between the multiple frames based on a size/location of the content within the multiple frames.

Abstract: A device capable of autonomous motion may process image data determined by one or more cameras to determine one or more properties of objects represented in the image data. The device may determine that two or more computer vision components correspond to a particular property. A first computer vision component may process the image data to determine first output data, and the second computer vision component may process the first output data to determine second output data corresponding to the property.

Abstract: Various embodiments enable a primary user to be identified and tracked using stereo association and multiple tracking algorithms. For example, a face detection algorithm can be run on each image captured by a respective camera independently. Stereo association can be performed to match faces between cameras. If the faces are matched and a primary user is determined, a face pair is created and used as the first data point in memory for initializing object tracking. Further, features of a user's face can be extracted and the change in position of these features between images can determine what tracking method will be used for that particular frame.

Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) or other device may perform various tasks during operation. The AMD includes a camera to acquire an image. Some tasks, such as presenting information on a display screen or a video call, may involve the AMD determining whether a user is engaged with the AMD. The AMD may move a component, such as the camera or the display screen, to provide a best experience for an engaged user. Images from the camera are processed to determine attributes of the user, such as yaw of the face of the user, pitch of the face of the user, distance from the camera, and so forth. Based on the values of these attributes, a user engagement score is determined. The score may be used to select a particular user from many users in the image, or to otherwise facilitate operation of the AMD.

Abstract: Systems and methods may be directed to de-blurring panoramic images and/or video. An image processor may receive a frame, where the frame comprises a plurality of pixel values arranged in a grid. The image processor may divide the frame into a first section and a second section. The image processor may determine a first motion kernel for the first section and apply the first motion kernel to the first section. The image processor may also determine a second motion kernel for the second section and apply the second motion kernel to the second section.
