A method implemented in a computing device for inserting an effect into a 360 video where the computing device receives the effect from a user. The method receives a target region from the user, the target region corresponding to a location within the 360 video for inserting the effect; for each frame in the 360 video. The method then inserts the effect on a surface of a spherical model based on the target region and generates at least two projection frames containing the effect from the spherical model. The method then stitches the projection frames to generate a panoramic representation of the effect, and blends the panoramic representation of the effect with an original source panorama to generate a modified 360 video frame with the effect.

Methods for rendering effects in 360 video

A computing device for inserting an effect into a 360 video receives the effect from a user. A target region is also received from the user, where the target region corresponds to a location within the 360 video for inserting the effect. Next, the following steps are performed for each frame in the 360 video. The effect is inserted on a surface of a spherical model based on the target region, and two half-sphere frames containing the effect from the spherical model are generated. The two half-sphere frames are stitched to generate a panoramic representation of the effect, and the panoramic representation of the effect is blended with an original source panorama to generate a modified 360 video frame with the effect.

The present invention is a method for enhancing image resolution. A high-resolution image is decomposed into plural primary image data with DVD/SVCD/VCD standard image resolution and then these plural primary image data are stored in plural user data format or secondary viewing angle data format of DVD/VCD/SVCD image data carrier. Next, the average value of pixels at the same positions of the plural primary image data is calculated and secondary image data are formed. Finally, the secondary image data are stored in a video-audio data format or a primary viewing angle data format of DVD/VCD/SVCD image data carrier. In order to play the high-resolution image data carrier, the plural primary image data is combined and restored to form a high-resolution image, hence achieving the goal of enhancing the image resolution of DVD/SVCD/VCD.
