A method of depth estimation, including, receiving an image frame, determining a relative depth map based on the image frame, receiving a sparse depth frame, preprocessing the sparse depth frame, determining a scale-adjusted relative depth map based on the relative depth map and the preprocessed sparse depth frame and fusing the relative depth map and the scale-adjusted relative depth map to produce an absolute depth map.

Depth estimation based on data fusion of image sensor and depth sensor frames

The invention discloses an active auto-focus tracking system using a time-of-flight (ToF) depth sensor. The ToF sensor serves as a rangefinder and also provides environmental depth information. The active auto-focus system includes a compressive tracking algorithm to track the movement of an object. The active auto-focus tracking system can acquire subject depth information regardless of various lighting conditions, subject positions, and visual patterns. Moreover, the system can perform an improved acquisition of focusing distance in both normal and low-level lighting conditions.

System and method for image auto-focusing

The present invention discloses a system and a method for providing multi-channel high-quality depth estimation from a monocular camera for providing augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) features to an image. The invention further includes the method to enhance generalization on deployment-friendly monocular depth inference pipeline with semantic information. Furthermore, a vivid and intact reconstruction is guaranteed by inpainting the missing depth and context within the single image input.

Multi-channel high-quality depth estimation system to provide augmented and virtual realty features

The present invention discloses a system and method for image processing and recognizing a scene of an image. The system utilizes a Multi-mode scalable network system and regrouping pipeline. The system is AI based system which uses neuro network. The system includes a pre-processing, processing and a post-processing unit. The system uses optical information recorded from the camera of a mobile device to extract and analyze the content in an image such as a photo or video clip. Based on the retrieved information, a label is given to best describe the scene of the image.

Scene recognition based on labeled feature vectors of an image

The present invention discloses system and method for processing an image. The invention processes the image by segmenting a human portrait region of the image. The invention uses ahierarchical hybrid loss module for masking the portrait region generating masked portrait region. The invention also uses data learning the masked portrait region.

Human portrait segmentation based image processing system

The present invention discloses a system for precise representation of object segmentation with multi-modal input for real-time video applications. The multi-modal segmentation system takes advantage of optical, temporal as well as spatial information to enhance the segmentation for AR and VR or other entrainment purpose with accurate details. The system can segment foreground objects such as human and salient objects within a video frame and allows locating object-of-interest for multiple-purposes.

Precise object segmentation with multi-modal input for realtime video application

A method of motion control and textured display, comprising, receiving an image, extracting an initial mask of a subject of interest from the image, segmenting the image into the initial mask and a background, determining a color texture of the initial mask, estimating motion of the initial mask to a new mask and merging the new mask and the background into a merged image.

Subject segmentation for motion control and textured display

The present invention discloses system and method for fake face identification. The system is a multi-spectral sensing based bio-security system. The system uses CNN module along with thermal sensors to detect human face and also detects the human temperature. The system authenticates a human face and in case of temperature generates an alarm as an alert.
