Abstract
A user-wearable visualization system comprising a carrier suitable for the retention of a lighting assembly and a viewing and collection system allows for the collection of images or video of objects under one or more lighting conditions, wherein the collected images may be enhanced or merged together to form a more detailed presentation of an object being viewed and presented to a user on a local display. Further disclosed are lighting assemblies that provide for the light necessary to collect images under different lighting conditions and optical filtering that allows for a limitation of the light viewable and collected.
Claims26
A visualization system comprising:
- a lighting/recording system comprising:
- a first housing comprising:
- at least one lighting assembly configured to:
- emit a light in at least one of:
- a visible light wavelength range and a non-visible light wavelength range;
- and
- at least one lens, the at least one lens configured to:
- focus the emitted light a known distance from the lighting assembly;
- a second housing comprising:
- at least one image capture assembly comprising:
- at least one image capture device configured to:
- capture light associated with of an object positioned the known distance from the lighting assembly, wherein the captured light is representative of an image of the object;
- an eyewear comprising:
- a first carrier lens;
- and
- a second carrier lens, each of the first carrier lens and the second carrier lens comprising:
- a magnification device, the magnification device configured to:
- magnify, by a known magnification factor, an image of an object the known distance from the eyewear;
- a display system associated with each of the first carrier lens and the second carrier lens, the display system comprising:
- a display screen, the display screen configured to:
- present information regarding at least the image of the object;
- and
- a processing system configured to:
- receive the image captured by each of the at least one image capture device;
- process the received image;
- and
- present the received images as the information to a corresponding one of the display system.
A visualization system comprising:
- a light housing comprising:
- at least one lighting assembly, each of the at least one lighting assembly comprising:
- at least one lighting source, each of the at least one lighting source configured to:
- emit light in at least one wavelength band;
- a recording housing comprising:
- at least one image capture assembly, each of the at least one image capture assembly comprising:
- at least one image capture device, wherein each of the at least one image capture device is configured to:
- capture images within at least one wavelength range;
- and
- at least one display system, each of the at least one display system configured to:
- display the captured images to a user;
- and
- an eyewear comprising:
- a first carrier lens;
- a second carrier lens,
- a first magnification device associated with the first carrier lens;
- and
- a second magnification device associated with the second carrier lens, wherein one of the at least one display system is positioned adjacent a corresponding one of the first carrier lens and the second carrier lens;
- and
- a processing system configured to:
- receive images collected by the at least one image capture device;
- process the received images;
- and
- present the processed images to the display system.
A visualization system comprising:
- a lighting and recording assembly comprising:
- a light housing comprising:
- at least one lighting assembly, wherein each of the at least one lighting assembly is configured to:
- emit a light in at least one wavelength range, wherein the emitted light is focus on an area a known distance from the visualization system;
- an image capture housing comprising:
- an image capture assembly comprising:
- at least one image capture element, wherein a first one of the at least one image capture element is configured to:
- capture light in a visible wavelength range;
- and
- a second one of the at least one of image capture element is configured to:
- capture light in a non-visible wavelength range;
- a frame comprising:
- a bridge element joining a first carrier lens and a second carrier lens;
- and
- a magnification device associated with each of the first carrier lens and the second carrier lens, the magnification device configured to:
- create a magnified image of an object at the known distance from the visualization system;
- a display system comprising:
- a display screen configured to:
- present an image of the object to a user;
- means for attaching the visualization system to the user, wherein the means for attaching the visualization system to the user comprises one of:
- a headband and a headstrap, and
- a multi-movement connector configured to:
- attach the frame to the means for attaching the visualization system to the user.
