    Abstract: An image processing system enables a user wearing a head-mounted display to experience a virtual environment combined with a representation of a real-world object. The image processing system receives a captured scene of a real-world environment that includes a target object. The image processing system identifies the target object in the captured scene and generates a representation of the target object. In some cases, the image processing system may include a graphical overlay with the representation of the target object. The image processing system can generate a combined scene that includes the target object and the virtual environment. The combined scene is presented to the user, thereby allowing the user to interact with the real-world target object (or a representation thereof) in combination with the virtual environment.

    Abstract: A driver assistance system includes a first measuring device for determining the distances to a water surface, which includes at least two distance sensors. A first distance sensor measures a first distance to a water surface, in that the distance is determined perpendicularly downward from the first sensor to the water surface, and the second distance sensor measures a second distance to a water surface, in that the distance is also determined perpendicularly downward from the second sensor to the water surface. A second measuring device determines an instantaneous pitch angle of the vehicle. A processing unit is coupled to the first and second measuring devices. The processing unit determines an instantaneous water surface plane as a function of the first distance, the second distance, and the instantaneous pitch angle of the vehicle. A display unit indicates the instantaneous water surface plane in relation to the vehicle.
