A ground control station configured to establish a communication channel with an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), to receive a second marked singular point indicative of an Area of Interest (AOI) and based on user input, to transmit, to the UAV, the second marked singular point, which is configured to instruct the UAV to move towards the second marked singular point, to receive, from the UAV, live video including the AOI, to determine a latency of the live video, to determine a first marked singular point based on the determined latency of the live video, to render a display video using the live video, the second marked singular point, and the first marked singular point, wherein the display video further includes a visual connection between the second marked singular point and the first marked singular point, and to display the rendered display video.

System and method to facilitate remote and accurate maneuvering of unmanned aerial vehicle under communication latency

The disclosure relates to systems, methods and programs for maneuvering unmanned vehicles. More specifically, the disclosure relates to systems, methods and programs for controlling maneuverability of unmanned vehicles (ground, aerial and marine) by coupling vehicle controls with point of regard (PoR) in a 2D plane, translated to a continuously updating flight vector in a 3D space, based on 12 DOF head pose and/or hand gesture of a user.

Systems, methods and programs for continuously directing an unmanned vehicle to an environment agnostic destination marked by a user

A system for social interaction using a photo-realistic novel view of an event includes a multi-view reconstruction system for developing transmission data of the event a plurality of client-side rendering devices, each rendering device receiving the transmission data from the multi-view reconstruction system and rendering the transmission data as the photo-realistic novel view. A method of social interaction using a photo-realistic novel view of an event includes transmitting by a server side transmission data of the event; receiving by a first user on a first rendering device the data transmission; selecting by the first user a path for rendering on the first rendering device at least on novel view; rendering by the first rendering device the at least one novel view; and saving by the user on the first rendering device novel view date for the at least one novel view.

System for and method of social interaction using user-selectable novel views

A method of generating user-selectable novel views of an event on a viewing device includes reconstructing by a server system for each camera image data into at least one foreground model for the respective camera and an environment model for the respective camera; joining by the server system the foreground model for each camera to create a visual atlas of all foreground models; creating by the server system foreground mapping data for foreground image data in the visual atlas; creating by the server system environment mapping data for environment image data in each respective environment model; transmitting by the server system each compressed data in a sequence it was compressed; receiving by the viewing device all compressed data; uncompressing by the viewing device all compressed data; selecting by a user the novel view; and rendering by the viewing device each novel view.

System for and method of generating user-selectable novel views on a viewing device

A method of limiting processing by a 3D reconstruction system of an environment in a 3D reconstruction of an event includes dividing by the subdivision module the volume into sub-volumes; projecting from each camera each of the sub-volumes to create a set of sub-volumes masks relative to each camera; creating an imaging mask for each camera; comparing for each camera by the subdivision module the respective imaging mask to the respective subvolume mask and extracting at least one feature from at least one imaging mask; saving by the subdivision module the at least one feature to a subspace division mask; cropping the at least one feature from the imaging frames using the subspace division mask; and processing only the at least one feature for a 3D reconstruction. The system includes cameras for recording the event in imaging frames; and a subdivision module for dividing the volume into sub-volumes.

System and method of limiting processing by a 3D reconstruction system of an environment in a 3D reconstruction of an event occurring in an event space

A system for multi-view reconstruction of a photo-realistic rendering of an event includes cameras for imaging the event with image frames; a controller having a CEM module for modeling an environment from image data of the image frames, an FES module for segmenting a foreground from the environment from image data of the image frames and constructing a 3D data representation; and a configuration engine includes a path selection module, the configuration engine for configuring and rendering the photo-realistic rendering along a path selected by a user using the path selection module, the path having at least one novel view image. The photo-realistic rendering has less than a 10% discrepancy between output pixel raster values of the novel view image and the image frames imaged by the cameras.
