An apparatus includes one or more processors and logic encoded in one or more non-transitory media for execution by the one or more processors and when executed operable to receive a first image of an object, wherein the first image was captured by a first camera in a set of cameras. The logic is further operable to determine first keypoints and a first pose for the object based on the first image. The logic is further operable to receive a second image from a second camera in the set of cameras. The logic is further operable to determine an overlap of the first image and the second image based on locations of the first keypoints, the second keypoints, the first pose, and the second pose. The logic is further operable to determine a synchronization error between the first image and the second image based on the overlap.

User interface for rolling shutter camera arrays and accurate volumetric capture workflows

A system and method for node-based image colorization is provided. The system receives a first user input via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) of an image/video editing application and controls a display device to display a node graph on the GUI based on the first user input. The node graph includes an input node to select grayscale images and a colorization node which may represent a workflow for colorization of at least a first object in the grayscale images. The system receives a second user input associated with a setting of the colorization node and selects an image colorization model based on the second user input. The system executes the workflow associated with the colorization node to transmit the grayscale images to a computing device that hosts the selected image colorization model, and to receive colorized images including at least the first object colorized based on a color effect.

Node-based image colorization on image/video editing applications

A computing system and method for neural network-based image colorization is provided. The computing system obtains a reference color image by selective application of a color effect on a region of interest of an input image and controls a display device to display a first node graph on a Graphical User Interface of an image/video editing application. The first node graph includes a colorization node representing a first workflow for colorization of at least a first object in grayscale images of a first image feed. The computing system selects the reference color image based on a user input and executes the first workflow associated with the colorization node by feeding the reference color image and the first image feed as an input to a neural network-based colorization model. The computing system receives a second image feed comprising colorized images as output of the neural network-based colorization model for the input.
