Method, Apparatus & Computer Program Product For Tracking Objects In A Warped Video Image

View page
US Patent:
6924832, Aug 2, 2005
Filed:
Sep 11, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/659621
Inventors:
Katerina L. Shiffer - San Jose CA, US
John Louis Warpakowski Furlan - Belmont CA, US
Assignee:
Be Here Corporation - Fremont CA
International Classification:
H04N007/18
US Classification:
348 36, 348 39
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods and computer program products are disclosed that track movement or a moving object through a warped video image. The warped video image can result from a video camera attached to a warping lens such as a wide-angle lens or panoramic lens. Some embodiments allow a user to select the portion of the image that interests the user for tracking. Other embodiments automatically select and track movement through the warped video image without input from a user. Still other embodiments track when movement comes into proximity with an area-of-interest and will raise an alarm that can be used to start recording of the warped video image or to trigger other alarm responses. Yet other embodiments change the bandwidth allocated to portions of the warped video image sent over a network responsive to the tracked movement so that the movement stays in a quality view.

Methods And Apparatus For Automated, Multi-Level Red Eye Correction

View page
US Patent:
7831067, Nov 9, 2010
Filed:
May 16, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/130630
Inventors:
Katerina Le Shiffer - Milpitas CA, US
John Louis Warpakowski Furlan - Belmont CA, US
Richard Tobias Inman - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382117, 382118, 382275, 382158
Abstract:
Various methods and apparatus for multi-level red eye correction in a digital image are described. In an embodiment, a method receives an input that identifies an actual red eye in a digital image and a red eye candidate score associated with the actual red eye. The red eye candidate score of the actual red eye exceeds a detection threshold value. The method corrects the coloration of the actual red eye with a level of correction based on the red eye candidate score.

Methods And Apparatus For Efficient, Automated Red Eye Detection

US Patent:
8374403, Feb 12, 2013
Filed:
May 16, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/130634
Inventors:
Katerina Le Shiffer - Milpitas CA, US
John Louis Warpakowski Furlan - Belmont CA, US
Richard Tobias Inman - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382117, 382118, 382275
Abstract:
Various methods and apparatus to detect red eye in a digital image are described. In an embodiment, a method identifies one or more red eye candidate zones within an identified skin region in a digital image. A first red eye candidate zone includes connected regions of pixels of a different color in the digital image than their natural color and exceeds a minimum size. The first red eye candidate zone is determined to be an actual red eye by comparing a red eye candidate score to a detection threshold value.

Method And System For Generation Of Multiple Viewpoints Into A Scene Viewed By Motionless Cameras And For Presentation Of A View Path

View page
US Patent:
6741250, May 25, 2004
Filed:
Oct 17, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/982614
Inventors:
John L. W. Furlan - Belmont CA
Robert G. Hoffman - Fremont CA
Derek Fluker - San Jose CA
Karen L. Bechtel - San Jose CA
Katerina L. Shiffer - Milpitas CA
Venugopal Garimella - Sunnyvale CA
Daniel B. Curtis - Newark CA
Assignee:
Be Here Corporation - Fremont CA
International Classification:
G06T 1500
US Classification:
345427
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for defining a view path through at least one wide-angle video stream and for creation of a resultant unwarped video stream responsive to the view path. Aspects of the invention allow an operator to monitor the wide-angle video stream(s) and select which portion of the wide-angle frame to unwarp in real-time. Further, the operator can stop the playback of the wide-angle video stream and dwell within a particular wide-angle frame to create special effects such as camera tilt, pan and zoom operations in a stop action situation.
