Abstract:
Techniques to provide efficient stereo block matching may include receiving an object from a scene. Pixels in the scene may be identified based on the object. Stereo block matching may be performed for only the identified pixels in order to generate a depth map. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for providing an augmented reality view in which eye movements are employed to identify items of possible interest for which indicators are visually presented in the augmented reality view. An apparatus to present an augmented reality view includes a processor component; a presentation component for execution by the processor component to visually present images captured by a camera on a display, and to visually present an indicator identifying an item of possible interest in the captured images on the display overlying the visual presentation of the captured images; and a correlation component for execution by the processor component to track eye movement to determine a portion of the display gazed at by an eye, and to correlate the portion of the display to the item of possible interest. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Generally, this disclosure provides systems, devices, methods and computer readable media for a depth camera with ML techniques for recognition of patches within an SL pattern. The system may include a projection module to project an ML-based SL pattern onto a scene; a camera to receive an image of the SL pattern reflected from the scene; a patch recognition and location module to generate a descriptor vector for a patch segmented from the received image and to query an ML system with the descriptor vector, the ML system configured to provide a patch label associated with the descriptor vector, the patch label comprising a location of the patch relative to the projected SL pattern; and a depth estimation module to triangulate a distance between the camera and a region of the scene associated with the patch based on the location of the patch relative to the projected SL pattern.
Abstract:
Technologies for depth-based gesture control include a computing device having a display and a depth sensor. The computing device is configured to recognize an input gesture performed by a user, determine a depth relative to the display of the input gesture based on data from the depth sensor, assign a depth plane to the input gesture as a function of the depth, and execute a user interface command based on the input gesture and the assigned depth plane. The user interface command may control a virtual object selected by depth plane, including a player character in a game. The computing device may recognize primary and secondary virtual touch planes and execute a secondary user interface command for input gestures on the secondary virtual touch plane, such as magnifying or selecting user interface elements or enabling additional functionality based on the input gesture. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
A compression encoding technique receives a series of data values each represented by a constant number of bits, divides the series into group, and for each group, determines a minimum number of bits that is sufficiently large to encode each of the data values without a loss in data, based on a property of the data values that is common within the group. The technique encodes the data values into encoded data values each represented by the determined minimum number of bits. The technique also appends to each encoded group a data descriptor indicating the determined number of bits used to encode the members of the group.
Abstract:
Method, apparatus, and systems employing dictionary-based high-bandwidth lossless compression. A pair of dictionaries having entries that are synchronized and encoded to support compression and decompression operations are implemented via logic at a compressor and decompressor. The compressor/decompressor logic operatives in a cooperative manner, including implementing the same dictionary update schemes, resulting in the data in the respective dictionaries being synchronized. The dictionaries are also configured with replaceable entries, and replacement policies are implemented based on matching bytes of data within sets of data being transferred over the link. Various schemes are disclosed for entry replacement, as well as a delayed dictionary update technique. The techniques support line-speed compression and decompression using parallel operations resulting in substantially no latency overhead.

Abstract:
Techniques to determine a search range for a stereo based matching pyramid. A first disparity estimation value for a first level in a stereo based matching pyramid based on an image may be received. A search range for a second level may be determined using the first disparity estimation value. The search range based on a pyramid level of a second level may be increased. The search range may be increased based on a pyramid level of the second level. A second disparity estimation value may be selected from the search area for the second level. A depth map for the second level may be determined based on the second disparity estimation value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
