    摘要: Systems and methods of producing video data and/or audio-photos from a static digital image are disclosed. One such method, among others, comprises receiving input from a user indicating sequentially, in real time, a plurality of regions of the static digital image. The method also includes processing the user input to determine the visual content of each of a sequence of video frames and generating output data representative of the sequence of video frames. The sequence and composition of the video frames are determined such that the visual content of the video frames is taken from the static digital image. For each region of the static image indicated by the user, a video frame is composed such that the said region occupies a substantial part of the video frame. The sequence of video frames shows the regions indicated by the user in sequential correspondence with the sequence in which the user indicated the regions and substantially in pace with the time in which the user indicated the regions.

    摘要: An attention detection system detects a condition of shared attention of plural persons. The system includes plural body language detectors each associated with a different person for detecting body language of the associated person. An analyzer receives body language information from the body language detectors, analyzes the body language of the persons and determines when said body language information indicates shared attention between the persons. The attention detection system generates a signal that captures an image of the shared attention.

    摘要: A digital camera derives an infrared and visible signals from IR and visible sensors. The sensor fields of view overlap or share a common field of view. An analyzer of the IR signal provides the location of and information from an active or passive IR target. The analyzer responds to the location and information signals for visible image composition control (pan/tilt/zoom/timing) and selection of visible image pictures for storage to provide ancillary information, such as personal details of a target wearer. The visible and infrared image signals are combined to correct for sensitivity of the visible and/or IR sensors to IR and visible wavelengths, respectively.

    摘要: In automatic photographic or electronic camera apparatus, sounds from a person are preferentially received or identified to provide an audio signal, used to produce a saliency signal (indicative of the person's response to circumstances) to control the camera or an image signal produced therefrom. The sounds are detected by a sound conduction microphone, e.g. on the head or throat of the person, or by voice identification circuitry used with a less specific microphone not necessarily mounted on the person, who may or may not be wearing the camera. Control can be in real time, or the sound or saliency signal can be recorded with an image signal for subsequent control of the latter. The audio signal is categorised by waveform analysis, e.g. for the recognition of sounds, such as speech or non-speech vocal sounds, and/or non-vocal sounds; signal amplitude may also be taken into account.
