Abstract
According to some embodiments, information about dynamic adjustments being made to a video feed may be received from an instrumented video camera, the video feed including a representation of a display monitor. An image to be displayed on the display monitor represented in the video feed may also be received. The image to be displayed on the display monitor may then be automatically adjusted based on the information received about dynamic adjustments to the video feed. The adjusted image may then be output to the display monitor.
Claims30
A method of providing an adjustable image to be displayed on a display monitor represented in a broadcast video feed, comprising:
- receiving first position information about a first position of dynamic adjustments associated with an instrumented single video camera, the video camera providing the broadcast video feed including a representation of the display monitor;
- providing a first adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the first position information from the video camera, the first adjusted image representing a first perspective of an item in the adjustable image, the first perspective associated with the first position information as viewed by the video camera from the first position;
- receiving second position information about a second position of dynamic adjustments associated with the instrumented single video camera;
- providing a second adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the second position information from the video camera, the second adjusted image representing a second perspective of the item in the adjusted image, the second perspective associated with the second position information as viewed by the video camera from the second position;
- the broadcast video feed having the representation of the display monitor which is displaying the adjustable image and having a representation of a scene separate from the representation of the display monitor;
- and
- wherein the change in the position of the video camera from the first position to the second position combined with the change in the adjustable image from the first adjusted image to the second adjusted image on the display monitor, creates an impression to a viewer watching the video feed that at least a portion of the adjustable image occupies a three-dimensional physical space.
A system for providing an adjustable image to be displayed on a display monitor represented in a broadcast video feed, comprising:
- an instrumented single video camera providing first position information about a first position of dynamic adjustments associated with the video camera, providing second position information about a second position of dynamic adjustments associated with the video camera, and providing the broadcast video feed including a representation of the display monitor;
- a rendering engine receiving the first position information and providing a first adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the first position information from the video camera, the first adjusted image representing a first perspective of an item in the adjustable image, the first perspective associated with the first position information as viewed by the video camera from the first position;
- the rendering engine further receiving the second position information and providing a second adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the second position information from the video camera, the second adjusted image representing a second perspective of the item in the adjustable image, the second perspective associated with the second position information as viewed by the video camera from the second position;
- the broadcast video feed having the representation of the display monitor which is displaying the adjustable image and having a representation of a scene separate from the representation of the display monitor;
- and
- wherein the change in the position of the video camera from the first position to the second position combined with the change in the adjustable image from the first adjusted image to the second adjusted image on the display monitor, creates an impression to a viewer watching the video feed that at least a portion of the adjustable image occupies a three-dimensional physical space.
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing instructions adapted to be executed by a processor to perform a method of providing an adjustable image to be displayed on a display monitor represented in a broadcast video feed, comprising:
- receiving first position information about a first position of dynamic adjustments associated with an instrumented single video camera, the video camera providing the broadcast video feed including a representation of the display monitor;
- providing a first adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the first position information from the video camera, the first adjusted image representing a first perspective of an item in the adjustable image, the first perspective associated with the first position information as viewed by the video camera from the first position;
- receiving second position information about a second position of dynamic adjustments associated with the instrumented single video camera;
- providing a second adjusted image of the adjustable image to the display monitor based on the second position information from the video camera, the second adjusted image representing a second perspective of the item in the adjusted image, the second perspective associated with the second position information as viewed by the video camera from the second position;
- the broadcast video feed having the representation of the display monitor which is displaying the adjustable image and having a representation of a scene separate from the representation of the display monitor;
- and
- wherein the change in the position of the video camera from the first position to the second position combined with the change in the adjustable image from the first adjusted image to the second adjusted image on the display monitor, creates an impression to a viewer watching the video feed that at least a portion of the adjustable image occupies a three—dimensional physical space.
