Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of photo services and provides the ability for a customer to self-operate photo / video recording processing and obtain professional-level digital images, which can then be displayed on various electronic devices compatible with media files, or as hard copies in the form of prints on paper, images on clothing, souvenirs, etc. BACKGROUND

[0002] The main obstacle faced by consumers in choosing a provider of high-quality photo / video services is the difficulty of obtaining various professional photo / video images in one place, including three-dimensional images for various tasks, such as to obtain a portrait, a photo for a document; panoramic photo / video images in three planes required to create a digital model of a person; photo / video images for entertainment purposes, photo / video using augmented reality elements, etc. In most cases, the consumer has access to various listed services at different locations, which inevitably leads to an increase in time spent and higher costs.

[0003] In the case of purchasing photo / video hardware separately allowing people to create photo / video images for various purposes (e.g. digital photo / video cameras, several digital photo / video cameras for creating composite images, a turn device for taking images while turning, printers of various formats, which are sold separately and are not components of an integrated system), the consumer will face the difficulty of combining the listed devices into one system and the need for the help of a qualified person in order to obtain photo / video images designed to solve compatibility problems.

[0004] In addition, for many users, simply connecting a set of devices by connecting cables is a problem. Connecting devices to work in different orders and / or to work only partially for an ordinary consumer who is not a professional programmer or photographer / designer is a nearly impossible task. In addition, creating such images at home cannot match the quality of a professional photographer's studio shots.

[0005] At the same time, it is important to note that a photo booth is known from the prior art (see FR3032284, class G03B17 / 53, published in 2019).

[0006] The known technical solution belongs to the category of compact automatic photo systems operated by customers in a self-service mode.

[0007] The booth is universal in autonomous operation and can be installed both outdoors and indoors, for example, in shopping centers or office business centers.

[0008] The photo booth is made in the form of a compact body equipped with input / output openings, inside which there is: a control unit with a payment terminal, a display for working with various applications and viewing images, a complex of photo / video cameras, lighting devices, a rotating base mounted on a shaft, under which there is usually installed a device for printing photo images.

[0009] The photo booth provided is a professional photo device and is capable of quickly producing high-quality photos, however, it is specifically designed to produce strictly formatted photos, which are mainly used to produce digital or paper documents.

[0010] Due to the compact size of the body, the system is quite simple and does not allow, for example, the use of photo / video equipment, in particular, for panoramic photo / video shooting or continuous photo / video shooting to obtain a particular visual effect, in addition, there is no possibility of pre-setting equipment operation modes and image editing, which limits the use and narrows the range of consumer interest.

[0011] In addition, additional disadvantages can be considered, namely, the known photo booths are not mobile and must be permanently installed, therefore, if it becomes necessary to move them from one area to another, it is necessary to involve specialized equipment and personnel, which complicates the operation process and increases maintenance costs.

[0012] An automatic 3D photo system is also known in the prior art (see KR101679398, class H04N13 / 00, published in 2016).

[0013] The known 3D system is an interactive automatic self-service photo studio, which has the ability to adaptively control photo / video equipment and systems and control the background during shooting, which allows people to create various 3D volumetric images and further manufacture using a 3D printer.

[0014] The studio 3D photo system includes separate cabins and a control block that controls operation and software processing with a data storage subsystem and controls the main and auxiliary equipment, while in the mentioned cabins there are digital devices for panoramic 3D photo / video shooting with electric drive and sensor elements.

[0015] According to the idea of such a known photo system, the specified storage subsystem contains information about the settings and operation modes of the equipment, while the specified digital devices for panoramic 3D photo / video shooting with electric drive mechanisms are made in the form of a mobile system of controlled video camera rows installed vertically, the arrangement and combination of which allow 3D photo / video shooting, the results of which are transmitted to the specified processing block, where they are processed and analyzed, and further start object printing processing on a 3D printer.

[0016] The aforementioned mobile system of controlled video cameras providing digital 3D shots is made in the form of a technically complex design of a ring-shaped support base, on the edge of which, on the circle, are located supports that move linearly on power bridges, while the supports contain a digital photo / video camera mounted on top of another, which cameras are directed towards the working area of the cabin and have the ability to adjust their height position.

[0017] It should be noted that the implementation of the proposed such controlled digital video camera system appears to be quite complex in execution, in addition, the use of extended supports as holders of digital cameras does not guarantee high image stability and, therefore, proper quality of the image, since vibrations transmitted from the mounting surface can be affected, and the effect of swinging can also occur when the supports suddenly stop moving.

[0018] An additional disadvantage in the operation of such a known 3D photo system is the operational complexity of synchronizing the operation of a large number of photo / video cameras that are part of a single subsystem, since errors and delays can be observed during computer processing of simultaneous input digital information in the smart control block, the software of which must analyze the data of each camera, individually compare the results with the data of other cameras, and in the event of malfunction or inaccurate operation of at least one digital camera, it becomes impossible to recreate an accurate virtual 3D copy of the object.

[0019] Among other disadvantages of the known 3D photo system, there is unreliability of the system for controlled digital photo / video facilities, as well as expected malfunctions and inaccuracies in the operation of the operating system of the smart control device.

[0020] The closest in a technical sense to the present invention is an automatic multimedia photo / video system known from US6317560, class GO3B15 / 00, published in 2001.

[0021] The multimedia system has the possibility of user selection of photo / video shooting modes and synchronized equipment control (in particular, control of the photo / video shooting system, lighting equipment and printing devices).

[0022] The technical implementation of the known multimedia system makes it possible to create shooting conditions equivalent to those inherent in a professional classic photo studio, and also provides a simple and fast way to obtain high-quality photo / video images.

[0023] The known automatic multimedia photo / video system comprises a space equipped with an entrance / exit and a work area defined by side walls, a top wall and a bottom wall, inside which there are lighting means of the work area, photo / video shooting means made with the ability to produce three-dimensional panoramic images, a display that allows real-time control of the position of the subjects, an additional complex of several photo / video devices, a device for printing the received digital images, and an electronic terminal with a control unit for controlling the functioning of the equipment and the shooting modes.

[0024] It can be considered a drawback of the known automatic multimedia photo / video system the insufficient interactive capacity of the system, i.e. the lack of software and technical capacity to pre-program the modes and options of the functioning of the equipment (in particular, the photo / video recording system, the lighting system, etc.), the impossibility of direct automatic computer processing / correction of the images during the shooting, in particular including the impossibility of superimposing various virtual effects and augmented reality elements, in addition, the impossibility of additional software (artistic) editing of the photo / video images by the client, as well as the impossibility of choosing further materialization options of the digital images.

[0025] Another drawback of the known automatic multimedia photo / video system should be considered the limited communication capacity of the equipment used, which cannot be further improved and cannot cope with a larger amount of information material and a set of software applications, including, for example, graphic editors for obtaining competitive and promising digital images for both home use and professional use in the gaming and film industry.

[0026] Therefore, the drawbacks of the known automatic multimedia photo / video system should be identified as the inability to expand and compete. SUMMARY

[0027] The purpose of the proposed invention is to create a programmable intelligent media system designed to receive and display digital images and having a convertible (flexible) operating structure with the necessary functional margins for further future operating modes.

[0028] The technical result of the proposed invention, which solves this particular technical problem, is an increase in the functional and technical level of the services provided, which consists in increasing the degree of automation of the performed operations and shortening the time for their integrated implementation, which is supported by continuous high interactivity and developed communication capacity.

[0029] The desired technical result and the specific technical solution are achieved thanks to the fact that the interactive system for complex processing and management of multimedia data to obtain an output digital image comprises a set of interconnected technical objects implementing embedded and programmable functions, located in an environment suitable for implementing media opportunities, including recording of moving and / or still images, the environment space being substantially defined by a housing having inside an adaptive surface in contact with the equipment, which has a communication influence on the resulting image, the image being processed using an augmented reality component, usually using the software of at least one of the objects, the at least one object being a control intelligent unit having a processor which processes and subsequently distributes the input signals generated by the user through the dialog interface of the auxiliary interactive devices for input / output operation information, while on the rest of the technical objects the distribution of the signals is performed, the rest of the technical objects being characterized by pre-established processing and operating modes and aiming at implementing automatic still and / or moving image and / or video shooting in the active area of the housing using digital photo / video recording tools and a subsystem for creating volumetric still and / or moving images, made in the form of at least two digital photo / video cameras, preferably one above the other in the vertical direction, where it is possible to use panoramic shooting areas in three planes, while it is possible to perform real-time visual user video control of the position in the active area of the housing during the generation of the media processing, at the completion of which the received and possibly processed media files enter the control intelligent unit according to the algorithm, which reproduces the media files in complete format for the consumer, for possible program editing and effective selection of digital image output options.

[0030] According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the photo and / or video shooting implementation occurs in the case of additional digital photo / video recording devices mounted in an axially rotatable manner on the upper part of the housing.

[0031] Most conveniently, the photo and / or video recording occurs in the case of a subsystem for creating volumetric images, made in the form of several digital photo / video cameras capable of sequential shooting placed horizontally in line on the front surface of the housing.

[0032] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the photo and / or video shooting implementation occurs in the case of front, side and rear lighting.

[0033] According to one specific embodiment of the invention, the digital photo / video recording devices are placed in the area of the front surface of the housing on a vertical orientation mobile system made in the form of a two-axis table with a movable carriage driven by an electric motor.

[0034] It is also possible to install in the central support portion of the space a base rotating platform equipped with electric drives for its movement.

[0035] In some embodiments of the invention, the system is equipped with a fixed digital monitoring video camera.

[0036] According to the proposed invention concept, a new high-tech system offers the consumer a full range of services related to obtaining professional level and quality of photographic and / or video services, comparable to the quality offered by professional photographers in comfortable and high-quality studio conditions, in addition, the specified range of services covers the main functions for obtaining digital electronic form of motion or still photographic and / or video material, as well as auxiliary functions, which consist in the possibility of visualizing these materials on any compatible electronic device, or their materialization, for example, on external printing devices, the basic meaning of which is based on the principle of increasing the interactivity and intelligence of the system and the use of flexible electronic control structures capable of restructuring, with the ability to successfully process an increasing amount of information and apply non-standard and complex modes of operation, in the proposed invention, this service is systematically solved due to the presence of the basic technology that determines a set of interconnected technical objects capable of realizing programmed and programmable potential and located in a specially adapted media environment, the space of which is limited by a casing inside which there is an adaptive surface in contact with the equipment, which has a communicative impact on the resulting image, which is processed using the software of at least one of the objects, which is a control intelligent unit with a processor that processes and then distributes input signals generated by the user through the dialog interface of auxiliary interactive devices for input / output operations, at the same time, the distribution of signals is performed by the remaining technical objects, the features of the processing and operation mode of which are pre-established.

[0037] According to the inventor's view of the technical problem, due to the merging of the application components inside the used media environment, the internal surface of which is adaptive and adapted to interact with the used equipment, such as programmable photo / video equipment and other auxiliary equipment, it is possible to shorten the time for performing the above-mentioned service and increase the automation level of the performed operations. The equipment is controlled by the user. In addition, the user determines the mode of the operations performed in one place and synchronizes and organizes the interaction of technical and operational solutions for the task according to the embedded software algorithms, which further provides and allows the possibility of additional custom graphical processing of the image in that place, so that a technical choice of options for the materialization of the obtained digital image can be made.

[0038] One fundamental part of the concept is the inner surface of the housing in contact with the equipment and with the adaptive ability to generate digital information that influences the generated image. This, combined with software processing, can create the most credible and realistic image that can be equipped with augmented reality components or other modern virtual variations that can significantly contribute to the generated image with almost infinite possibilities, expanding the technical toolkit that allows functional prominence and will use the received material not only for personal purposes, but also for professional purposes.

[0039] One additional and most important feature is the high level of interactive and responsive multimedia perception of the system, since the intelligent unit with a processor is used to control the functional processing and interconnected equipment. The intelligent unit with a processor allows programming the operating mode and determining the functionality of the equipment through the dialog interface of the auxiliary subsystem to perform the required processing of digital photo / video recordings according to the consumer's decision, which allows shooting according to individual scenarios, which increases the level of functionality and service potential.

[0040] In addition to the above, the system is also capable of real-time position correction, as well as graphic processing of digital images in automatic mode according to the proposed user algorithm, and processing in manual mode using a graphic editor, followed by the possibility of choosing options for materializing the image. It also provides increased information exchange and accordingly enhances information perception, which also increases functionality and positively affects the quality and variability of the resulting digital photo / video material.

[0041] Therefore, taking into account its properties and technical features, the above given composite processing and control technology of multimedia data for obtaining output digital images forms a set of features sufficient to achieve the expected technical result, which is manifested by an increase in the automation level of the performed operations and a reduction in the time for the integrated implementation thereof, which is supported by consistent high-speed interactivity and developed communication capabilities, as well as solving the specific technical problem of creating a programmable intelligent media system designed to receive and output digital images, and with a convertible (flexible) control structure with the necessary functional margin for further promising operating modes.

[0066] The proposed interactive system for controlling and processing multimedia data of the digital images generated therefore comprises a set of interconnected technical objects implementing programmed and programmable functions.

[0067] The technical objects listed are located in an environment for implementing media capabilities, the space of which is limited and indicated by the enclosure 1. The media capabilities mentioned include, in particular, recording moving and / or still images.

[0068] The enclosure 1 is similar to a separate room or cabin or booth and has inside an adaptable surface in contact with the equipment, which is able to exert a certain communicative influence on the images being formed.

[0069] The adaptable surface is understood as a surface able and technically suitable to act as some sort of auxiliary tool for taking photos or videos, i.e. as a background or acting as a background or imitating various objects and creating environments typical of professional photo studios.

[0070] In addition, the adaptable surface can be composed of various elements, which in turn can be both stable and not change their state, thus creating a constant background during the photo / video recording, or change this state in order to add various effects and images in the background obtained through the photo and video material.

[0071] The inclusion of the adaptable surface can be changed (adapted) with the help of the equipment according to the photo / video recording mode chosen by the user.

[0072] In general, the inner surface of the enclosure 1 has a matte, anti-reflective or monochromatic color.

[0073] In addition, this adaptable surface can have a grid of horizontal and vertical lines to help improve the orientation of the programmed photo / video recording algorithms usually located opposite the digital photo / video recording device 6.

[0074] Said contact with the equipment means the direct installation of the equipment, in particular on the surface of the enclosure 1, and its adjustment to operate in the relevant specific conditions.

[0075] As already mentioned, the adaptable surface of the enclosure 1 can also have a communicative influence on the created images, which should be understood as the ability to create recording conditions that ensure the transmission and exchange of information and the perception of information during the recording process and after its completion.

[0076] According to this concept, the created images can be processed with the aid of an augmented reality component, which is made possible by the use of an operating system, the software of which is able to carry out such processing, for example, in accordance with the established adjustment and control signals, and make corresponding virtual changes with the aid of symbols that are information-enhanced with the original real image.

[0077] As mentioned above, a set of interconnected technical objects is located in the enclosure 1 and comprises the following:

[0078] One of the objects is a smart control unit 13 with a processor, which controls all the processing of the interactive system, and, as mentioned above, its software implements the processing of digital images, and actually processes and subsequently distributes, through the dialog interface of the auxiliary interactive input / output devices of the operating information, the input signals generated by the user with personal discretion.

[0079] Further distribution of signals takes place between the remaining technical units, the processing and operating mode of which is pre-established and is aimed at implementing automatic static and / or mobile photo and / or video recording according to specific algorithms or maintaining its mode, which is generated in the active area of the enclosure 1.

[0080] The control signals are fed into the digital photo / video recording device 6, which is a digital photo / video camera, usually arranged in the area of the front inner surface of the enclosure 1 on a vertically oriented mobile system 7 (a translation stage). The translation stage is able to change the focus of the device and is arranged like a two-coordinate stage (a carriage with electric drive) or a track along which the digital photo / video recording device fixed by a magnet system moves with the help of an electric motor. The equipment is usually protected by a high-transparency, breakage-proof glass.

[0081] The control signals enter the subsystem 9 for generating three-dimensional static and / or motion images, which is usually installed in the area of the inner side surface of the enclosure 1 and is made in the form of at least two digital photo / video cameras located one above the other (preferably in the vertical direction), so that the panoramic shooting area can be used mainly in three planes.

[0082] The control signals are transmitted to the lighting control unit, which is subdivided in the enclosure 1 into front lighting 3, side lighting 4, and rear lighting 5.

[0083] The control signals can also be distributed to the control unit that rotates the rotating stage 12, which is installed on the surface at the center of the space of the enclosure 1 and is equipped with rotating mechanisms. The user or object is placed in the center of the rotating stage 12. The base of the platform is marked with markings, and when the platform rotates, the processing of photo / video recording takes place.

[0084] Control signals can reach an additional supplementary digital photo / video camera 10, which is usually mounted on the ceiling 2 of the housing 1 and is a photo / video camera capable of rotating 360° and taking photos / videos in this mode of rotation.

[0085] Control signals can reach a subsystem for producing three-dimensional images, which performs sequential photo / video recordings 11. This subsystem is preferably located on the front surface of the housing 1 and consists of several digital photo / video cameras (3-36) positioned along a horizontal line and allowing radial sequential photo / video recordings along the line 175-185°. Using the software of the intelligent unit 13, continuous shooting can be performed by each camera in a given time interval, either sequentially or in another order necessary to create a specific photo / video effect. In this case, the subject or the user is placed in the active area of the housing 1 and, depending on the pre-set recording type, the process of photo / video recording of the specified digital photo / video cameras is carried out. In this case, the user or the subject can remain in place or can be rotated by the rotating platform 12.

[0086] The above-mentioned photo / video capabilities can be implemented individually or in combination with each other, depending on the algorithm pre-selected by the user. At the same time, these processes are accompanied by the possibility of visual user video control of the location in the active area of the housing 1 in real-time production of media processing, which can be implemented through the video screen 8.

[0087] The ongoing processes inside the housing 1 can also be monitored in real time using fixed digital video surveillance cameras 16.

[0088] At the end of the photo / video processing, the saved (received) and processed media files enter the control intelligent unit 13, depending on the algorithm. It reproduces digital images in full format for the consumer, for possible additional program editing, and for effective selection of digital image output options through a multifunctional printer 15 that can print color images, 3D models, etc.

[0089] The proposed interactive system can be equipped with an additional intelligent unit 14 with a processor located outside the housing 1.

[0090] At the same time, the main intelligent unit 13 and the additional unit 14 are usually equipped with a service payment terminal.

[0091] The interactive system can be equipped with an optional professional multifunctional printer 18, which is located outside the housing 1 and is capable of printing large-sized images and large-sized 3D models.

[0092] The housing 1 of the interactive system has an entrance / exit opening 17.

[0093] It should be noted that the purpose of the present description of the present application is not to limit it to the specific embodiment and implementation options. On the contrary, it covers all possible additions within the scope of the proposed claims.

[0094] The proposed interactive system for controlling and processing the multimedia data of the generated digital images is integrated as follows.

[0095] The user enters the casing 1 through the opening 17 and uses the smart unit 13 with processor and payment sensor. Using its touchscreen (information input / output device) and operating system with software, the user, according to the system configuration, selects the type of photo / video recording from the available options or independently programs the operating mode. Next, he adjusts the lighting (color, intensity, brightness, etc.), the background, as needed, then the user creates the environment, selects the mode and operating conditions of the digital photo / video recording device 6, the mode and operating conditions of the subsystem 9 for creating three-dimensional images, adjusts the filters, and also models and / or creates all kinds of additional effects and features.

[0096] In separate use cases, the user can adjust the brightness, color, direction, color temperature of the lighting devices 3, 4 and 5, the position of the digital photo / video recording device 6 in height, the focal length of the digital photo / video recording device 6, the position of the subsystem 9 for creating three-dimensional images in the case of selecting its multiple operating modes, can choose the desired angle, etc.

[0097] Thus, the user, with the help of the touchscreen (information input / output device) of the smart unit 13 and the software of its processor, selects the photo / video shooting mode, for example, the modes proposed by the program or the visual modes and effects set and customized by the user, in particular, selects the photo or video parameters, the background, the environment, for example, the city landmarks, famous places or other background images, etc., from the database of the smart unit 13.

[0098] After completing the selection of all the necessary settings and the implementation of all the preparatory operations, the user starts the process of shooting / creating a digital video through the smart unit 13 with processor and payment sensor, while indicating clear indications to the user on the touchscreen and / or video screen 8, in particular, for example, a countdown to the first shot can be displayed.

[0099] The resulting digital images produced by the digital photo / video recording device 6 and the subsystem 9 for creating three-dimensional static and / or motion images are displayed simultaneously on the video screen 8 so that the user sees his position in real time, adjusting his position to obtain the best result.

[0100] At the end of the countdown, the smart unit 13 with processor emits a beep one second before the shot, after which the action (digital picture or digital video processing) is performed, the result of which is sent to the smart unit 13, which displays the result on the touchscreen or video screen 8 and starts the countdown to the next automatic action, so the user has the opportunity to change position and change the moment he does not like, then the next action (digital picture or digital video processing) occurs, which can be repeated in a loop, for example, up to 10 times.

[0101] After the 10th shot, the smart unit 13 with processor shows the user on the touchscreen a message that all shots (actions) have been made and that the selection and possible editing of the images must begin.

[0102] To this end, the smart unit 13 with processor shows the user on the touchscreen the digital images that the user can edit, the user selects the desired image, then a subsequent menu appears on the screen, allowing further editing of the characteristics of the image.

[0103] The additional customized editing of the photo or video material means using automatic filters, retouching, engraving, it is also possible to select a sequence of music in order to be overlaid on the digital video, even more.

[0104] After editing the digital image, the user confirms the end of the processing by pressing the desired area in the menu on the touchscreen, after which the selected image is stored in the database of the smart unit 13 with processor, while the menu offers the ability to immediately send the image to the consumer's email and the ability to immediately print the digital photo in the format of a flat photo or a three-dimensional 3D model, etc. on the multifunctional printers 15 and 18.

[0105] The proposed interactive system for controlling and processing multimedia data of generated digital images can be successfully used in the field of professional photo services and can be installed independently, but also in the interior, for example, in shopping centers.

[0106] The appearance of such a system can be implemented in the form of a photo camera or a video camera, which allows to attract the attention of users to the photo-video studio and to distinguish it from other objects, indicating its purpose.

[0107] The proposed object can be made with the possibility of movement or installed on a vehicle with the ability to move.

[0108] The use of the proposed interactive system for controlling and processing multimedia data of generated digital images will allow any user to create professional, high-quality photos or videos very quickly and without the help of a photographer and then, if necessary, to share the digital images on social media or to print them on professional equipment that allows 3D printing without delay.
