Abstract
Systems and methods are described for generating and using a flexible scene framework to render dynamically-generated content within contextual scenes.
Claims20
A method for generating scenes with dynamically-generated content for display, comprising:
- selecting one or more injectable scene elements;
- selecting one or more scene images at least one of which comprises one or more placeholder locations for placement of injectable scene elements,
- selecting one or more scene descriptions comprising computer-readable scene rendering instructions for compositing at least one of the scene images and at least one of the injectable scene element and for performing at least one image transformation on at least one of the at least one scene image and the at least one injectable scene element;
- processing the selected scene descriptions, by one or more processors, to inject respective ones of the selected injectable scene elements into corresponding placeholder locations in one or more respective scene images specified in the selected scene descriptions and to perform one or more image transformations and compositing of the selected injectable scene elements and the specified scene images to generate a composite scene image depicting the selected injectable scene elements in a scene.
1 more element
A system for generating a personalized scene, comprising:
- computer-readable storage retaining one or more injectable scene elements, one or more scene images at least one of which comprises one or more placeholder locations for placement of injectable scene elements, and one or more scene descriptions comprising computer-readable scene rendering instructions for compositing at least one of the scene images and at least one of the injectable scene element and for performing at least one image transformation on at least one of the at least one scene image and the at least one injectable scene element;
- one or more processors configured to process at least one of the scene descriptions to thereby inject respective ones of the selected injectable scene elements into corresponding placeholder locations in one or more respective scene images specified in the selected scene descriptions and to perform one or more image transformations and compositing of the selected injectable scene elements and the specified scene images to generate a composite scene image depicting the selected injectable scene elements in a scene.
