METHOD AND APPARATUS TO GENERATE HAPTIC FEEDBACK FROM VIDEO CONTENT ANALYSIS

摘要

The disclosure relates to generating haptic feedback based on video content analysis, sensor information that includes one or more measurements of motion of one or more objects on a video, and/or sensor information that includes one or more measurements of motion of one or more image capture devices. The video content analysis may include image processing of the video. The system may identify one or more events based on the image processing and cause a haptic feedback based on the one or more events. The haptic feedback may vary based on an estimated acceleration of an object of a scene of the video, wherein the estimated acceleration is based on the image processing. The estimated acceleration may be made more accurate at high speeds using the sensor information and an estimated acceleration based on the sensor information may be made more accurate at lower speeds based on the image processing.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method of providing haptic feedback based on video image processing, the method being implemented on a computing device having a processor programmed with a computer program module, the method comprising:
reading one or more videos comprising one or more image frames; performing image processing on the one or more image frames; detecting an event based on the image processing; and providing a control signal based on the detected event, the control signal configured to cause a haptic feedback.
