Title:
SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF CREATING VIRTUAL WINDOW
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014143746
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems and methods of creating a virtual window.SOLUTION: The systems and methods described provide an imaging system that allows multiple sensors to record images at their respective best exposure values and adaptively altering the exposure of the images recorded to create a seamless 360-degree view. In particular, the systems and methods described herein include determining exposure values for each column of photosensitive elements in a sensor by interpolating between the best exposure values of adjacent sensors. Additionally, a first imaging sensor of the multiple sensors may be disposed horizontally adjacent to a second imaging sensor.
