A vision system for a vehicle includes an imaging device having an imaging sensor, a camera microcontroller, a display device having a display element, a display microcontroller, and at least one user input selectively actuatable by a user. The imaging device communicates an image signal to the display device via a communication link. The display microcontroller affects the image signal in response to the at least one user input. The camera microcontroller monitors the image signal on the communication link and adjusts a function of the imaging device in response to a detection of the affected image signal. The vision system may adjust a display or sensor of the system in conjunction with a distance detecting system.

A method and system for processing captured image information in an interactive video display system. In one embodiment, a special learning condition of a captured camera image is detected. The captured camera image is compared to a normal background model image and to a second background model image, wherein the second background model is learned at a faster rate than the normal background model. A vision image is generated based on the comparisons. In another embodiment, an object in the captured image information that does not move for a predetermined time period is detected. A burn-in image comprising the object is generated, wherein the burn-in image is operable to allow a vision system of the interactive video display system to classify the object as background.

One embodiment is a lighting system associated with a machine vision system. The machine vision system may direct lighting control commands to the lighting system to change the illumination conditions provided to an object. A vision system may also be provided and associated with the machine vision system such that the vision system views and captures an image(s) of the object when lit by the lighting system. The machine vision system may direct the lighting system to change the illumination conditions and then capture the image.

A panoramic system generally employs a panoramic input component, a processing component, and a panoramic display component. The panoramic input component a panoramic sensor assembly and / or image selectors that can be used on an individual or network basis. The processing component provides various applications such as video capture / control, image stabilization, target / feature selection, image stitching, image mosaicing, 3-D modeling / texture mapping, perspective / distortion correction and interactive game control. The panoramic display component can be embodied as a head mounted display device or system, a portable device, or a room.

The field of the invention relates to computer vision systems and methods providing real time data analytics on detected people or objects in the home environment or other environments. It is based on an embedded engine that analyses an image from a raw sensor and virtualised the image into a digital representation enabling a digital understanding of the environment while guarantying privacy. It comprises multiple image processing blocks and embedded firmware.

A camera or vision system for establishing a composite image for displaying in a vehicle includes a first camera and a second camera and a controller. Each camera has a respective field of view that overlaps partially with the respective field of view of the other camera. Each camera has a respective imager for generating a respective preliminary digital image. The cameras together have a combined field of view. The controller is programmed to generate a final composite digital image that corresponds to a selected digital representation of the combined field of view of the cameras by using a remapping table to remap selected pixels from each of the preliminary digital images into selected positions of the final composite digital image. A plurality of methods for establishing a composite image are also provided.

The present invention features a network-based in-store media broadcasting system comprising one or more, and preferably, a plurality of client player devices placed at a plurality of business locations, each of the client player devices being independently supported and in communication with the internal audio / visual system installed in the business location; a customizable broadcast supported on each of the client player devices and comprising informational content thereon (music, advertisements, etc.) that is specific to the particular business location; a central server system comprising one or more central servers in communication with each of the independent client player devices; and a network configuration connecting the client player devices to the central server network to provide an exchange of information between the two. The in-store media broadcasting system also comprises several proprietary software application modules functioning to allow the in-store media broadcasting system to operate. The present invention also features a unique method of doing business to provide in-store media broadcasting to one or more business locations. Not only is the business model capable of providing in-store media broadcasting, but a national radio-advertising platform or network focusing on major retailers and service providers throughout the country is also contemplated. The present invention system and service gives retailers and service providers the ability to broadcast customized music and messaging to their customers. In addition, the radio-advertising network provides a targeted advertising venue for consumer marketing companies and, unlike any other media, allows them to advertise products to select and targeted customers at the point of sale.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide for systems and apparatuses directed toward using a contact lens and deflection optics to processes display information and non-display information. In one embodiment of the invention, a contact lens assembly is provided, comprising: a substrate including optical path optics and configured to receive a display information optical path emitted from a display and a non-display information optical path not emitted from the display. The optical path optics of the substrate is configured to be partially deflective such that the non-display information optical path is transmitted to a human visual system without deflection, and the display information optical path is transmitted to the human visual system with deflection.
