Method of generating a synthetic image

A system for generating a synthetic image, the system comprising a camera, a client device and a server, the system being configured to:

• receive, by the server from the camera, first data associated with a first image and second data associated with a second image, the first data comprising first pixels and a first timestamp, the second data comprising second pixels and a second timestamp, the first image and the second image depicting a common object;
• determine, by the server, an actual position of first common object pixels within the first pixels and an actual position of second common object pixels within the second pixels, the first common object pixels and the second common object pixels being associated with the common object in the first image and the second image, respectively;
• compute, by the server, a common object motion information based on the actual position of the first common object pixels, the actual position of the second common object pixels, the first timestamp and the second timestamp, the common object motion information being representative of a movement pattern of the common object between a position of the common object in the first image and a position of the common object in the second image;
• receive, by the server from the camera, third data associated with a third image, the third data comprising third pixels and a third timestamp, the third image depicting the common object;
• determine, by the server, an actual position of third common object pixels within the third pixels, the third common object pixels being associated with the common object in the third image;
• compute, by the server, an estimated position of the third common object pixels within the third pixels based on the common object motion information, the third timestamp and the third pixels;
• determine, by the server, if the actual position of the third common object pixels and the estimated position of the third common object pixels match;
• and
• in response to the actual position of the third common object pixels and the estimated position of the third common object pixels not matching, generate, by the server, the synthetic image based on the third image and at least one of the first image and the second image and comprising at least the third common object pixels and correction pixels, to generate the system is configured to:
• assign, by the server, the third common object pixels to the estimated position of the third common object pixels within the synthetic image;
• determine, by the server, correction pixel positions of the correction pixels and the correction pixels based on the actual position of the third common object pixels and at least one of the first image and the second image;
• and
• assign, by the server, the correction pixels to the correction pixel positions of the correction pixels within the synthetic image.
• send, by the server to the client device, at least one of the first image, the second image and the synthetic image for displaying the at least one of the first image, the second image and the synthetic image to a user of the client device.

A server for generating a synthetic image, the server comprising a processor for executing computer readable instructions, the processor being configured to:

• receive first data associated with a first image and second data associated with a second image, the first data comprising first pixels and a first timestamp, the second data comprising second pixels and a second timestamp, the first image and the second image depicting a common object;
• determine an actual position of first common object pixels within the first pixels and an actual position of second common object pixels within the second pixels, the first common object pixels and the second common object pixels being associated with the common object in the first image and the second image, respectively;
• compute a common object motion information based on the actual position of the first common object pixels, the actual position of the second common object pixels, the first timestamp and the second timestamp, the common object motion information being representative of a movement pattern of the common object between a position of the common object in the first image and a position of the common object in the second image;
• receive third data associated with a third image, the third data comprising third pixels and a third timestamp, the third image depicting the common object;
• determine an actual position of third common object pixels within the third pixels, the third common object pixels being associated with the common object in the third image;
• compute an estimated position of the third common object pixels within the third pixels based on the common object motion information, the third timestamp and the third pixels;
• determine if the actual position of the third common object pixels and the estimated position of the third common object pixels match;
• and
• in response to the actual position of the third common object pixels and the estimated position of the third common object pixels not matching, generate the synthetic image based on the third image and at least one of the first image and the second image and comprising at least the third common object pixels and correction pixels, to generate the synthetic image comprises the processor being configured to:
• assign the third common object pixels to the estimated position of the third common object pixels within the synthetic image;
• determine correction pixel positions of the correction pixels and the correction pixels based on the actual position of the third common object pixels and at least one of the first image and the second image;
• and
• assign the correction pixels to the correction pixel positions of the correction pixels within the synthetic image.
