Abstract
A system receives and/or generates a first input image and a second input image. The system generates a first low frequency image as a function of the first input image, and a second low frequency image as a function of the second input image. Subsequently, the system generates the resulting image as a function of the first low frequency image, the second low frequency image and the second input image. A user may observe the first input image when the user views the resulting image at a first predetermined distance. In addition, the user may observe the second input image when the user views the resulting image at a second predetermined distance.
Claims31
A method for generating a resulting image, comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving at least one first input image;
- (b) receiving at least one second input image;
- (c) generating a first filtered image by manipulating high frequency components of the at least one first input image;
- (d) generating a second filtered image by manipulating high frequency components of the at least one second input image;
- and
- (e) generating the resulting image as a function of the first filtered image, the second filtered image and the at least one second input image,
- wherein a user is capable of observing the at least one first input image when the user views the resulting image at a first predetermined distance, and wherein the user is capable of observing the at least one second input image when the user views the resulting image at a second predetermined distance.
A method for generating a resulting image, comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving at least one first input image;

- and
- (h) generating the resulting image as a function of the first low frequency image, the second low frequency image, the third low frequency image and the at least one second input image,
- wherein a user is capable of observing the at least one first input image when the user views the resulting image at a first predetermined distance, and wherein the user is capable of observing the at least one second input image when the user views the resulting image at a second predetermined distance.
A system for generating a resulting image, comprising:
- a processor retrieving at least one first input image and at least one second input image, the processor generating a first filtered image by manipulating high frequency components of the at least one first input image, and a second filtered image by manipulating high frequency components of the at least one second input image,
- wherein the process generates the resulting image as a function of the first filtered image, the second filtered image and the at least one second input image,
- wherein a user is capable of observing the at least one first input image when the user views the resulting image at a first predetermined distance, and
- wherein the user is capable of observing the at least one second input image when the user views the resulting image at a second predetermined distance.
