732 results about "Visual appearance" patented technology

The visual appearance of objects is given by the way in which they reflect and transmit light. The color of objects is determined by the parts of the spectrum of (incident white) light that are reflected or transmitted without being absorbed. Additional appearance attributes are based on the directional distribution of reflected (BRDF) or transmitted light (BTDF) described by attributes like glossy, shiny versus dull, matte, clear, turbid, distinct, etc.

Dynamic document context mark-up technique implemented over a computer network

A technique is disclosed for generating markup information to be displayed on a client computer system. The client system includes memory configured to store at least one update file which comprises keyword information relating to keywords suitable for markup. In one implementation, the update file is generated at a remote server system and downloaded to the client system. When a new document (e.g. a web page) is displayed on the client system to an end user, selected context associated from the document is analyzed for selected keywords. In a specific implementation, the selected keyword information is provided by an entity other than the end user. Using the selected keyword information, specific context in the document is selected to be marked up. According to a specific embodiment, the selection of the document context to be marked up may be performed at the client system. Markup operations are then implemented at the client system on at least a portion of the selected document context, thereby resulting in marked up document context which has a visual appearance that is different than the appearance of the initial parsed context. Additionally, a pop-up advertisement may be automatically displayed on the client system based upon the identified context in the document. When the user clicks on a portion of the marked up document context, the user may be redirected to a target URL which was not included as part of the initial parsed document context. Alternatively, a pop-up window or layer which includes a plurality of different links may be displayed to the user.

Method of tracking moveable objects by combining data obtained from multiple sensor types

Method of tracking moveable objects (typically tagged objects that are moved by actors e.g. people, vehicles) by combining and analyzing data obtained from multiple types of sensors, such as video cameras, RFID tag readers, GPS sensors, and WiFi transceivers. Objects may be tagged by RFID tags, NFC tags, bar codes, or even tagged by visual appearance. The system operates in near real-time, and compensates for errors in sensor readings and missing sensor data by modeling object and actor movement according to a plurality of possible paths, weighting data from some sensors higher than others according to estimates of sensor accuracy, and weighing the probability of certain paths according to various other rules and penalty cost parameters. The system can maintain a comprehensive database which can be queried as to which actors associate with which objects, and vice versa. Other data pertaining to object location and association can also be obtained.

Image processing for supporting a stereoscopic presentation

An image processing is applied in common to image data for a first image and to image data for a second image. The image data for the first image and the image data for the second image are moreover compared as a basis for matching a visual appearance of images for a stereoscopic presentation. The visual appearance can be matched in the current pair of images by adjusting at least one of the images accordingly and / or in future pairs of images by adjusting parameters of at least one of the image capturing components providing the image data.
