Abstract:
A depth estimation from focus method and system includes receiving input image data containing focus information, generating an intermediate attention map by an AI model, normalizing the intermediate attention map into a depth attention map via a normalization function, and deriving expected depth values for the input image data containing focus information from the depth attention map. The AI model for depth estimation can be trained unsupervisedly without ground truth depth maps. The AI model of some embodiments is a shared network estimating a depth map and reconstructing an AiF image from a set of images with different focus positions.
Abstract:
An image processing device is applied to an image processing device and a related depth estimation system. The image processing device includes a receiving unit and a processing unit. The receiving unit is adapted to receive a capturing image. The processing unit is electrically connected with the receiving unit to determine a first sub-image and a second sub-image on the capturing image, to compute relationship between a feature of the first sub-image and a corresponding feature of the second sub-image, and to compute a depth map about the capturing image via disparity of the foresaid relationship. The feature of the first sub-image is correlated with the corresponding feature of the second sub-image, and a scene of the first sub-image is at least partly overlapped with a scene of the second sub-image.
Abstract:
A wearable device interactive system and techniques, methods and apparatuses thereof are described. A wearable device may sense a movement by a user wearing the wearable device. The wearable device may also determine whether a path of the movement corresponds to one or more predefined patterns. The wearable device may further perform one or more operations in response to a determination that the path of the movement corresponds to at least one of the one or more predefined patterns.
Abstract:
A wearable device interactive system and techniques, methods and apparatuses thereof are described. A wearable device may sense a user input by a hand of the user, analyze the user input, and perform one or more operations responsive to a result of the analysis. For example, the wearable device may launch an application corresponding to the user input. As another example, the wearable device may recognize a text at a fingertip of the user and determine a location of the wearable device to determine a context, and launch an application corresponding to the context.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus of compression for pre-stitched pictures captured by multiple cameras of a panoramic video capture device are disclosed. At the encoder side, stitching information associated with a stitching process to form the pre-stitched pictures is used to encode a current block according to embodiments of the present invention, where the stitching information comprises calibration data, matching results, seam position, blending level, sensor data, or a combination thereof. In one embodiment, the stitching information corresponds to matching results associated with a projection process, and projection-based Inter prediction is used to encode the current block by projecting a reference block in a reference pre-stitched picture to coordinates of the current block. In another embodiment, the stitching information corresponds to seam information associated with seam detection, and seam-based Inter prediction is used to encode the current block by utilizing the seam information.
