Scene processing for holographic displays

A system for rendering scene content in a form configured for visually improved presentation on at least one holographic display device, the system comprising a digital processing resource, the digital processing resource comprising at least one digital processor, the digital processing resource being configured to:

• (A) recognize at least one semantic meaningful element within the scene content, the semantic meaningful scene element comprising an object having contextual significance to a human viewer, the recognizing comprising applying machine vision analysis to at least one two dimensional or three dimensional digital representation of the scene content;
• (B) select, from the at least one recognized semantic meaningful element, at least one selected meaningful scene element;
• (C) determine, based at least in part on the at least one selected semantic meaningful scene element, at least one digital scene transform, the digital scene transform comprising a computational modification applied within a digital rendering pipeline to at least a portion of the scene content;
• and
• (D) utilizing the at least one determined digital scene transform, digitally render multiple 2-dimensional perspectives of the scene content, the multiple 2-dimensional perspectives being configured for visually improved presentation on at least one holographic display device comprising at least one of:
• a lenticular autostereoscopic panel, a parallax barrier display, a light field display, a slanted lens array and a display device for which the image perceived by an observer depends on the viewing angle of the observer.

A program product for use with a digital processing system to enable the digital processing system to render scene content in a form configured for visually improved presentation on at least one holographic display device, the digital processing system comprising at least one digital processor, the program product comprising digital processor-executable program instructions stored on at least one non-transitory digital processor readable medium, which when executed in the digital processing system cause the digital processing system to:

• (A) digitally recognize at least one semantic meaningful element within the scene content, the semantic meaningful scene element comprising an object having contextual significance to a human viewer, the recognizing comprising applying machine vision analysis to at least one two dimensional or three dimensional digital representation of the scene content;
• (B) select, from the at least one recognized semantic meaningful element, at least one selected meaningful scene element;
• (C) determine, based at least in part on the at least one selected semantic meaningful scene element, at least one digital scene transform, the digital scene transform comprising a computational modification applied within a digital rendering pipeline to at least a portion of the scene content;
• and
• (D) utilizing the at least one determined digital scene transform, digitally render multiple 2-dimensional perspectives of the scene content, the multiple 2-dimensional perspectives being configured for visually improved presentation on at least one holographic display device comprising at least one of:
• a lenticular autostereoscopic panel, a parallax barrier display, a light field display, a slanted lens array and a display device for which the image perceived by an observer depends on the viewing angle of the observer.
