REAL-TIME CHANGES TO A SPHERICAL FIELD OF VIEW
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a video source configured to generate a plurality of video streams that capture a view of an environment; and
a computing device comprising one or more processors configured to (i) perform a stitching operation on said plurality of video streams to generate a video signal representative of a spherical field of view of said environment, (ii) transmit a display signal that represents a projection of said video signal to be displayed to a user utilizing an immersive display, (iii) receive a plurality of commands from said user while said user observes said environment in said immersive display and (iv) adjust a plurality of parameters in one or more of said video source and said stitching operation in real time in response to said commands.

Abstract
A system includes a video source and a computing device. The video source may be configured to generate a plurality of video streams that capture a view of an environment. The computing device generally includes one or more processors configured to (i) perform a stitching operation on the plurality of video streams to generate a video signal representative of a spherical field of view of the environment, (ii) transmit a display signal that represents a projection of the video signal to be displayed to a user utilizing an immersive display, (iii) receive a plurality of commands from the user while the user observes the environment in the immersive display and (iv) adjust a plurality of parameters in one or more of the video source and the stitching operation in real time in response to the commands.

13. A system comprising:
-
an immersive display configured to display to a user a projection of a spherical field of view representative of an environment; and a plurality of sensors configured to receive a plurality of commands from said user while said user observes said environment using said immersive display, wherein (i) a plurality of parameters in one or more of a video source and a stitching operation are adjusted in response to said commands, (ii) said user sees changes in real time to said environment through said immersive display in response to said commands and (iii) said stitching operation generates a video signal representative of said environment from a plurality of video streams generated by said video source. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
