The keeper's note

Virtual-production immersive-display color/lighting-adjustment UI hardware system.

Abstract

In some implementations, a computing device in communication with an immersive content generation system may generate a first set of user interface elements configured to receive a first selection of a shape of a virtual stage light. In addition, the device may generate a second set of user interface elements configured to receive a second selection of an image for the virtual stage light. Also, the device may generate a third set of user interface elements configured to receive a third selection of a position and an orientation of the virtual stage light. Further, the generate a fourth set of user interface elements configured to receive a fourth selection of a color for the virtual stage light. Numerous other aspects are described.

Background

(1) This application is related to U.S. Non-provisional application Ser. No. 17/716,333, now U.S. Pat. No. 11,978,154, entitled “SYSTEM AND TECHNIQUES FOR LIGHTING ADJUSTMENT FOR AN IMMERSIVE CONTENT PRODUCTION SYSTEM” by Jutan et al., which is incorporated herein by reference. This application is related to concurrently filed U.S. Non-provisional application Ser. No. 17/716,437, now U.S. Pat. No. 11,887,251, entitled “SYSTEM AND TECHNIQUES FOR PATCH COLOR CORRECTION FOR AN IMMERSIVE CONTENT PRODUCTION SYSTEM” by Jutan et al., which is incorporated herein by reference. This application is related to concurrently filed U.S. Non-provisional application Ser. No. 17/716,474, now U.S. Pat. No. 11,762,481, entitled “LIGHT CAPTURE DEVICE” by Jutan et al., which is incorporated herein by reference. FIELD (2) The present disclosure generally relates to generating content using one or more displays configured for operation in an immersive content production system. In some embodiments, the images shown on the displays may be color corrected in real-time or at interactive frame rates. In addition, virtual lights can be generated using the interactive displays. BACKGROUND (3) One method of creating a virtual reality experience can include surrounding a user with large display screens that present a virtual environment for the user. For example, an immersive content production system that can be used in production of movies and videos can include a stage or performance area that is at lea

Claims

1. A method of generating a graphical user interface performed by a processor, the method comprising: generating a first set of user interface elements configured to receive a first selection of an offset value for adjusting a color of a virtual object; generating a second set of user interface elements configured to receive a second selection of a gamma value for adjusting the color of the virtual object; generating a third set of user interface elements configured to receive a third selection of a gain value for adjusting the color of the virtual object; and generating a software switch for receiving a selection to enable or disable the offset value, the gamma value, and the gain value adjustments to the color of the virtual object. || 7. A method of generating a graphical user interface performed by a processor, the method comprising: generating a first set of user interface elements configured to receive a first selection of a color of a panosphere; generating a second set of user interface elements configured to receive a second selection of a position and an orientation of the panosphere; and generating a window containing preview the panosphere.
