Interactive video installation and method thereof
First Claim
1. An interactive imaging system comprising:
- a display for displaying a displayed image in initial and transformed states; and
a processing system that segments the displayed image into a plurality of impressible regions;
operates on at least one input signal by associating at least one input signal to at least one impressible region, whereby the at least one input signal transforms the impressible region to a different state, thereby transforming the state of the displayed image.

Abstract
An interactive imaging system and method thereof are provided. The invention provides a real-time interactive video system. The input signals to the system are given through an array of cameras, sensors and microphones. The input signals are generated by human (or pet) presence and involvement. A set of software modules is invoked based on a “rule” framework created by the user, e.g., artist or designer, of the interactive system. The “rules” define which set of input signals are connected to certain portions, i.e., impressible regions, of an image on a display of the system or connected to certain portions on a mosaiced display. The inventive system allows the user to build a set of “rules” as to how the impressible regions of the displayed images can change based on motion, color, and/or texture of a “visitor” interacting with the system.

15. A method for processing an image, the method comprising the steps of:
-
displaying an initial image on a display means;
segmenting the initial image into a plurality of impressible regions;
processing at least one input signal; and
associating the at least one input signal to at least one of the plurality of impressible regions and transforming each of the at least one impressible region to a different state based on the associated at least one input signal. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
