Abstract
A method of generating at least one image of a real environment comprises providing at least one environment property related to at least part of the real environment, providing at least one virtual object property related to a virtual object, determining at least one imaging parameter according to the at least one provided virtual object property and the at least one provided environment property, and generating at least one image of the real environment representing information about light leaving the real environment according to the determined at least one imaging parameter, wherein the light leaving the real environment is measured by at least one camera.
Claims20
A method for generating an image of an environment, comprising:
- determining one or more visual properties of the environment in a field of view of an image capture device;
- determining one or more properties of a virtual object to be rendered in an image of the environment;
- selecting one or more image capture parameters in accordance with the determined one or more visual properties of the environment and the one or more properties of the virtual object;
- and
- causing the image capture device to capture an image of the environment in accordance with the image capture parameters.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable code executable by one or more processors to:
- determine one or more visual properties of an environment in a field of view of an image capture device;
- determine one or more properties of a virtual object to be rendered in an image of the environment;
- select one or more image capture parameters in accordance with the determined one or more visual properties of the environment and the one or more properties of the virtual object;
- and
- cause the image capture device to capture an image of the environment in accordance with the image capture parameters.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more computer readable media comprising computer readable code executable by the one or more processors to:
- determine one or more visual properties of an environment in a field of view of an image capture device;
- determine one or more properties of a virtual object to be rendered in an image of the environment;
- select one or more image capture parameters in accordance with the determined one or more visual properties of the environment and the one or more properties of the virtual object;
- and
- cause the image capture device to capture an image of the environment in accordance with the image capture parameters.
