AUTOMATED DEFINITION OF SYSTEM BEHAVIOR OR USER EXPERIENCE BY RECORDING, SHARING, AND PROCESSING INFORMATION ASSOCIATED WITH WIDE-ANGLE IMAGE
First Claim
1. A system for automatically defining a user experience or system behavior related to a scene image content using a marked image, the system comprising:
- (a) an imager configured to capture or generate the scene image content; and
(b) an encoding unit configured to receive the scene image content from the imager and combine the scene image content with at least one marker to create the marked image, the marker encoding at least one imager parameter that is used by the display device or the algorithm unit to automatically define the user experience or system behavior.

Abstract
Systems and methods in accordance with the invention allow automatic recording, sharing, and communicating of different parameters associated with images and their imager to define a specific system behavior of a display device or an algorithm unit. Examples of information include imager parameters, environment parameters, image processing and enhancement parameters, coordinates of a section of wide-angle scene image content, display parameters, defined user experience, defined system behavior or any information to be recorded, shared, and communicated. To avoid loss of information, the information is encoded directly in the picture using a marker. This way, the information is robustly transferred from the imager to the display unit. According to the information, the final image can be automatically corrected and enhanced before display, different associated parameters can be displayed on final image or be used with another output. The end user experience or system behavior can thus be defined and be reproduced.
