Abstract
A method and apparatus for displaying video is provided herein. During operation, video is displayed on one of many displays in a geographically correct fashion. For example, in an embodiment involving two displays (e.g., on a firefighter's two wrists), each of which display a video feed, the video is displayed such that the video feed of the most appropriate scene (not necessarily the video feed of the closest camera) is shown on that display.
Claims14
A method for a display device to display an image, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving multiple field of views (FOVs) from multiple cameras;
- determining directions or locations of the FOVs captured by the multiple cameras;
- determining an orientation of the display device;
- determining positions of windows used for displaying the FOVs;
- determining what FOV to display in each window based on the location of the FOVs, the orientation of the display device, and the position of the windows used for displaying the FOVs.
2 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- a receiver receiving multiple field of views (FOVs) from multiple cameras;
- context-aware circuitry determining an orientation of the apparatus;
- logic circuitry determining directions or locations of the FOVs captured by the multiple cameras, determining positions of windows used for displaying the FOVs, and determining what FOV to display in each window based on the location of the FOVs, the orientation of the display device, and the position of the windows used for displaying the FOVs.
