摘要： A method for determining an exposure, in particular an exposure time, for a recording in a method for determining the 3D coordinates of an object is provided, in which a pattern is projected onto the object and the light reflected by the object is recorded. To improve such a method, a recording of the object is produced with a predetermined exposure, in particular exposure time. A mask image of this recording is produced, in which mask image the regions of the object lying within the measurement volume are depicted. The exposure, in particular the exposure time, for the recording is determined depending on the predetermined exposure, in particular exposure time, depending on the mean greyscale value in the regions, lying within the measurement volume, of the recording with a predetermined exposure and depending on an ideal greyscale value.

摘要： Disclosed a method and a system for real-time rendering displaying virtual reality (VR) using head-up display devices. The method comprises: obtaining relevant parameters including a camera matrix, a projection matrix, a model matrix and a center position of lens distortion; creating a 3D model and obtaining an original coordinate data of the 3D model; obtaining first coordinate data in accordance with the relevant parameters and the original coordinate data of the 3D model; performing lens distortion on the first coordinate data based on the center position of lens distortion to obtain second coordinate data; rasterizing the second coordinate data to obtain pixel information; and drawing an image in accordance with a VR video data and the pixel information. According to the present disclosure, the lens distortion on the coordinate data is performed in the 3D model, so that video and immersive rendering can be realized in one processing, thereby improving rendering efficiency.

摘要： A method for downloading a VR video is disclosed. The method comprises: receiving a play request for a first video; calculating an average download speed; selecting a plurality of first video segments from a plurality of video segments of the first video according to the average download speed, wherein the plurality of video segments of the first video correspond to different resolutions and bitrates; determining a download link according to the plurality of first video segments; and downloading the plurality of first video segments according to the download link. The video segments, which need to be downloaded, are determined according to the average download speed, so that the amount of downloaded data can be decreased and the video transmission can be optimized.
