First Claim
Patent Images
1. A display apparatus, comprising:
- a front panel for displaying an image to a first user situated in front of the front panel; and
a pipeline including;
a matrix of image sensors situated behind the front panel for capturing a plurality of images of the first user situated in front of the front panel, anda correlation and tracking module which is adapted to;
identify a point of view of a second user to which a single final image of the first user to be generated based on the plurality of captured images is to be displayed, wherein the point of view of the second user is identified from a remote system capturing an image of the second user,trace rays from the point of view of the second user through each of the image sensors to identify pixels of the images captured by the image sensors that coincide with the point of view of the second user, andgenerate the single final image of the first user using the identified pixels for display to the second user, such that the single final image of the first user is specific to the point of view of the second user.

21. A method, comprising:
-
identifying a transparent state of a front panel utilized for displaying an image to a first user situated in front of the front panel; capturing a plurality of images of the first user situated in front of the front panel utilizing a matrix of image sensors situated behind the front panel, in response to the identification of the transparent state; identifying a point of view of a second user to which a single final image of the first user to be generated based on the plurality of captured images is to be displayed, wherein the point of view of the second user is identified from a remote system capturing an image of the second user; tracing rays from the point of view of the second user through each of the image sensors to identify pixels of the images captured by the image sensors that coincide with the point of view of the second user; and generating the single final image of the first user using the identified pixels for display to the second user, such that the single final image of the first user is specific to the point of view of the second user.

22. A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising:
-
computer code for identifying a transparent state of a front panel utilized for displaying an image to a first user situated in front of the front panel; computer code for capturing a plurality of images of the first user situated in front of the front panel utilizing a matrix of image sensors situated behind the front panel, in response to the identification of the transparent state; identifying a point of view of a second user to which a single final image of the first user to be generated based on the plurality of captured images is to be displayed, wherein the point of view of the second user is identified from a remote system capturing an image of the second user; tracing rays from the point of view of the second user through each of the image sensors to identify pixels of the images captured by the image sensors that coincide with the point of view of the second user; and computer code for the single final image of the first user using the identified pixels for display to the second user, such that the single final image of the first user is specific to the point of view of the second user.
