MULTI-CAMERA SYSTEM CONTROLLED BY HEAD ROTATION

摘要

Systems and methods of controlling a remote camera system by head rotation are herein described. A sensor on a head-mounted display (HMD) can determine the orientation of the HMD. A computing device can translate the orientation of the HMD from one coordinate representation to another coordinate representation. A microcontroller can convert the orientation of the HMD to a control signal. A motor controller can orient a camera mounted gimbal based on the control signal. A plurality of cameras on the camera mounted gimbal can stream video to the HMD. A process on the HMD can process the streaming video to allow for stereoscopic vision and depth. A display on the HMD can display the processed streaming video.

主权项

1. A method of controlling a remote camera system by head rotation, comprising:
determining, by a sensor on a head-mounted display device, an orientation of the head-mounted display; converting, by a microcontroller, the orientation of the head-mounted display to a control signal; orienting, by a motor controller, a gimbal based on the control signal; streaming, by a plurality of cameras on the gimbal, a plurality of images to the head-mounted display; processing, by a processor on the head-mounted display, the plurality of images to generate a synthesized plurality of images for stereoscopic display; and displaying, by a display in the head-mounted display, the synthesized plurality of images.
