1306 results about "Image synthesis" patented technology

Rendering or image synthesis is the automatic process of generating a photorealistic or non-photorealistic image from a 2D or 3D model (or models in what collectively could be called a scene file) by means of computer programs. Also, the results of displaying such a model can be called a render.

Image synthesizing apparatus and image synthesizing method

An image synthesizing apparatus which generates, from plural images with differing resolutions and lighting conditions, a synthesized image in which the resolution of the original image is improved and the lighting conditions match those of the original image. The image synthesizing apparatus includes: a camera which acquires an original image and plural reference images, the reference images being obtained by capturing the same object shown in the original image under differing lighting conditions; a reference image conversion unit which converts the resolution of the acquired plural reference images to the same resolution as the original image; a coefficient calculation unit which calculates, based on the original image and plural reference images, which now have the same resolution, a conversion coefficient used in performing linear combination on the plural converted reference images and generating an original image; and an image synthesizing unit which generates plural converted reference images by converting the plural reference images to a target resolution, generates a linear-converted image by performing linear combination on the generated plural converted reference images using the conversion coefficient, and outputs, as a synthesized image, the generated linear-converted image or an image in which the adjusted linear-converted image has been adjusted.

Imaging device and method, computer program product on computer-readable medium, and imaging system

A specific object such as a human body can be visualized in a wide range in a relation to its background night and day to definitely identify a location of the object in relation to the background as well in the infrared image captured by the infrared camera. The present invention provides an imaging device including a color camera unit for making color imaging with the imaging direction being sequentially adjusted for each of unit images forming together a panoramic image, an infrared camera for imaging by infrared radiation measurement with the imaging direction being sequentially adjusted for each of unit images forming together a panoramic infrared image, a server for storing/managing a panoramic color image produced by overlaying a plurality of unit images captured in colors by the color camera unit one on the other and a panoramic infrared image produced by overlaying a plurality of unit images captured by infrared radiation measurement by the infrared camera one on the other, an image synthesizer for overlaying, on an image of an object imaged by controlling the direction of imaging by the infrared camera to a desired one in a range of the imaging, a color image corresponding to a location, where the object has been imaged by the infrared camera, in a panoramic color image stored/managed in the server, and an image display for displaying an image produced by the overlaying by the image synthesizer.
