Abstract
Systems, methods, and software for operating an image processing system are provided herein. In a first example, a method of operating an image processing system is provided. The method includes identifying object pixels associated with an object of interest in a scene, identifying additional pixels to associate with the object of interest, and performing an operation based on a depth of the object in the scene on target pixels comprised of the object pixels and the additional pixels to change a quality of the object of interest.
Claims18
A method of operating an image processing system, the method comprising:
- identifying object pixels associated with an object of interest in a scene;
- identifying additional pixels to associate with the object of interest;
- and
- performing an operation based on a depth of the object in the scene on target pixels comprised of the object pixels and the additional pixels to change a quality of the object of interest,
- wherein performing the operation on the target pixels comprises identifying ones of the additional pixels to exclude from the object of interest located along lines directed to a vertical vanishing point of the scene which are a first number of pixels from object pixels.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having program instructions stored thereon for operating an image processing system, that when executed by the image processing system, direct the image processing system to:
- identify object pixels associated with an object of interest in a scene;
- identify additional pixels to associate with the object of interest;
- and
- perform an operation based on a depth of the object in the scene on target pixels comprised of the object pixels and the additional pixels to change a quality of the object of interest,
- wherein performing the operation on the target pixels comprises identifying ones of the additional pixels to exclude from the object of interest located, along lines directed to a vertical vanishing point of the scene which are a first number of pixels from object pixels.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having program instructions stored thereon for operating an image processing system, that when executed by the image processing system, direct the image processing system to:
- identify object pixels associated with an object of interest in a scene;
- identify additional pixels to associate with the object of interest;
- and
- perform an operation based on a depth of the object in the scene on target pixels comprised of the object pixels and the additional pixels to change a quality of the object of interest,
- wherein performing the operation on the target pixels comprises identifying ones of the additional pixels to exclude from the object of interest located along lines directed to a vertical vanishing point of the scene which are a first number of pixels from object pixels,
- wherein performing the operation on the target pixels, the program instructions when executed by the image processing system direct the image processing system to identify ones of the additional pixels to exclude from the object of interest located along lines directed to a vertical vanishing point of the scene which are a first number of pixels from object pixels.
