The keeper's note

Image-compensation rendering technique for AR.

Abstract

There are provided systems and methods for performing image compensation using image enhancement effects. In one implementation, such a system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing an image compensation software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the image compensation software code to receive image data corresponding to an event being viewed by a viewer in a venue, the image data obtained by a wearable augmented reality (AR) device worn by the viewer, and to detect a deficiency in an image included in the image data. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the image compensation software code to generate one or more image enhancement effect(s) for compensating for the deficiency in the image and to output the image enhancement effect(s) for rendering on a display of the wearable AR device while the viewer is viewing the event.

Background

BACKGROUND

Augmented reality (AR), in which real world objects and/or environments are digitally modified using virtual imagery, offers the opportunity to provide entertainment experiences that are more immersive and engaging. AR can be used to modify images of the real world through augmentation. For example, a user viewing real world objects through AR glasses or using an AR headset can see some or all of those real world objects overlaid by virtual projections.SUMMARY

There are provided systems and methods for performing image compensation using image enhancement effects, substantially as shown in and/or described in connection with at least one of the figures, and as set forth more completely in the claims.

Claims

1. A system comprising: a computing platform including a hardware processor and a memory storing an image compensation software code; wherein the hardware processor is configured to execute the image compensation software code to: receive an image data corresponding to an event being viewed by a viewer in a venue, the image data obtained by a wearable augmented reality (AR) device worn by the viewer; detect a deficiency in an image included in the image data; generate at least one image enhancement effect for compensating for the deficiency; and output the at least one image enhancement effect for rendering on a display of the wearable AR device while the viewer is viewing the event. 11. A method for use by a system including a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing an image compensation software code, the method comprising: receiving, by the image compensation software code executed by the hardware processor, an image data corresponding to an event being viewed by a viewer in a venue, the image data obtained by a wearable augmented reality (AR) device worn by the viewer; detecting, by the image compensation software code executed by the hardware processor, a deficiency in an image included in the image data; generating, by the image compensation software code executed by the hardware processor, at least one image enhancement effect for compensating for the deficiency; and outputting, by the image compensation software code executed by the hardware processor, the at least one image enhancement effect for rendering on a display of the wearable AR device while the viewer is viewing the event.
