Multi-layer imaging
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a transparent display member having a compound liquid crystal display (LCD), the compound LCD having multiple independent LCDs arranged in overlapping layers, including a first layer having a first LCD and a second layer having a second LCD;
an image capture module that captures multiple images of a target object, including a first image of the target object and a second image of the target object;
an image processing module that;
identifies a bright spot in the first and second images,identifies the target object in the first and second images proximate to the bright spot,modifies the first image to diminish the bright spot, andmodifies the second image to emphasize the target object, andan image display module that interfaces with the transparent display member to display the modified first image using the first LCD and display the modified second image using the second LCD.

Abstract
For multi-layer imaging, an apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a transparent display having multiple liquid crystal display (LCD) layers. The apparatus includes an image capture module that interfaces with a camera to capture multiple images of a target object. The apparatus includes an image processing module that identifies a bright spot in first and second images, identifies the target object in the first and second images proximate to the bright spot, and modifies at least one of first and second images to diminish the bright spot and to emphasize the target object. The apparatus includes an image display module that interfaces with the transparent display member to display the first image with the first LCD layer and display the second image with the second LCD layer after modifying at least one of the first and second images.

18. A method, comprising:
-
interfacing with a camera to capture multiple images of a target object, including a first image of the target object and a second image of the target object; identifying a bright spot in the first and second images; identifying the target object in the first and second images proximate to the bright spot; modifying the first image to diminish the bright spot; modifying the second image to emphasize the target object; and interfacing with a transparent display member having a compound liquid crystal display (LCD), the compound LCD having multiple independent LCDs arranged in overlapping layers, including a first layer having a first LCD and a second layer having a second LCD, to display the modified first image using the first LCD and display the modified second image using the second LCD.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to:
-
interface with a camera to capture multiple images of a target object, including a first image of the target object and a second image of the target object; identify a bright spot in the first and second images; identify the target object in the first and second images proximate to the bright spot; modify the first image to diminish the bright spot; modify the second image to emphasize the target object; and interface with a transparent display member having a compound liquid crystal display (LCD), the compound LCD having multiple independent LCDs arranged in overlapping layers, including a first layer having a first LCD and a second layer having a second LCD, to display the modified first image using the first LCD and display the modified second image using the second LCD.
