BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
One or more embodiments of the invention wll now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Figure 1 shows an image capture system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 is a flow chart showing the operation of an image capture system according to Figure 1; Figure 3 is a representation of a vehicle incorporating an image capture system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
An image capture system 1 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figure 1 in the context of a vehicle image capture system. The image capture system 1 comprises an image capture module 3 having a number of inputs and outputs allowing it to communicate with and/or receive data from an eye tracking system 5, a panoramic or 360 degree camera arrangement 7, a user command device 9, a display device 11 and a data store 14. The image capture module comprises a processor 15 whose operation is described below. The system 1 further comprises a communications module 16 to enable the system 1 to communicate via a network 18, such as the Internet, with a remotely located party 20.
The display screen 11 may comprise an in-car display screen (e.g. a dashboard mounted screen), a smart-window style screen (e.g. a transparent display (LCD) screen such as described herein rittø:ii\vww,ceekosvstern.ccrn!sarnsuncsmartrwridnw/) or an independent display device (e.g. a display screen on a communications device such as a tablet computer such as an iPad® or a smartphone such as an iPhone®).
The eye tracking system 5 may comprise one or more in-cabin image capture devices that are arranged to be directed at the vehicle driver or vehicle passengers. The image capture devices may be fixed devices within the vehicle or may be capable of panning/tilting in order to track eye movements.
The user command device 9 may comprise any suitable user command device to allow the user to activate the system and to capture an image. For example, a dedicated button may be provided within the cabin of the vehicle to allow a user to activate and/or command the system to capture an image. A plurality of such dedicated buttons may be provided to allow each occupant within the vehicle to capture an image. In the event that there are multiple in-cabin cameras then the activation of different user command buttons may activate different cameras or different arrangements of cameras.
In an alternative arrangement, occupants of the vehicle may interact with a touch-screen enabled devce (e.g. located within the dashboard of the vehicle or in seat backs). The system may also be operated via spoken commands in which instance the input command device may comprise a microphone. A remote control device may also be provided for use with different occupants within the vehicle. In further arrangements more than one of the above user command devices may be used.
The camera arrangement 7 may comprise one or more of a single panoramic camera with a wide field of view, an array of cameras providing 360 degree coverage about the vehicle or a camera capable of panning and tilting.
The data store 14 may be integrated with the image capture module 3 or may comprise a separate storage area within the vehicle (e.g. another data store associated with the electronic control unit (ECU) or with an in-vehicle entertainment system).
The image capture module 3 may also comprise communication means 16 to enable the transmission of captured images to a remote third party 20.
The operation of the image capture system of Figure 1 is shown in Figure 2. The image capture system 1 may be activated in an initial step 100. This may comprise an occupant of the vehicle actively switching the system on, e.g. via a dashboard control. Alternatively the system may be arranged to activate automatically on engine start or at the start of a key cycle.
An eye tracking device 5 located within the cabin of vehicle may, in step 102, supply image data to an eye tracking system (which may be a software module within the processing module 15 of the image capture module 3 of Figure 1). The supplied image data may show one or more occupants within the vehicle.
The eye tracking system is arranged to determine, in step 104, the absolute position of the occupant (or occupants) shown in the image data from the eye tracking device along with roll, pitch and yaw information. In this manner the occupant (or occupants) is (are) tracked with six degrees of freedom thereby allowing the direction of gaze of the occupant (or occupants) to be determined and the occupant (occupants) body position to be monitored.
Although the eye tracking system described above is incorporated within the image capture module it is noted that in alternative arrangements a separate eye tracking system may be provided which determines the direction of gaze of the occupant (or occupants). In such an alternative arrangement the data received by the image capture module's processor comprises the occupant's (user's) direction of gaze rather than the basic image data used to determine the direction of gaze.
Once the occupant (or occupants) direction of gaze has been determined the processor 15 may determine where within the field of view of the image capture system the occupant is looking. This determination may, for a multi-camera image capture system, comprise determining which cameras have the same view as the occupant.
In step 106, an occupant issues a command (via 9) to capture an image using the image capture system 1. The captured image may be centred on where the occupant's field of gaze is directed within the field of view of the image capture system. Accordingly, the captured image will contain details from the scene external in the approximate region of the occupant's point of regard in said scene.
The captured image may then be displayed in step 108 on a display screen 11. The display screen may comprise an integrated screen wthin the vehicle (e.g. dashboard display, seat back display, smart window display etc) or a standalone device.
If the occupant (user) wishes to keep the image then they may issue a save command in step 110. Alternatively each captured image may be automatically saved. Saved/captured images may then be shared in step 112.
Since the position of the occupant (user) is tracked with 6 degrees of freedom an occupant's body movements may be exploited to provide a "zoom" option when capturing an image. For example, by leaning in the direction of gaze a user may effectively signal to the processor 15 that the image capture system should zoom in on the scene they are looking at.
The user command device 9 may provide the user the option of previewing an image before storing. For example, a first activation of the user command device may capture a "preview" image that the user may review on the display device 11. A further activation of the user command device may then either be arranged to store the image or arrange for a new image to be captured. A yet further activation of the user command device may allow the user to manipulate the preview image. For example, by leaning toward or away from the scene to be captured the user may zoom either into or out from the captured image.
Figure 3 shows a vehicle that incorporates an image capture system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
Figure 3 shows a representation of a view from inside a vehicle cabin looking out through the windshield 50. The vehicle dashboard 52 is visible along with the steering wheel 54 and the display screen 56 of an integrated satellite navigation system. The vehicle is progressing along a road 58 which can be seen outside the vehicle and also on the display screen 56.
A head-up display provides vehicle speed 60 and navigation direction 62 indications in the top left corner of the windshield. A virtual navigation ribbon 64 is also projected using the head up display in such a way as to appear to follow the road 58 from the point of view of the vehicle operator.
A body of water 66 is visible to the left of the vehicle, again both through the windshield and also on the display screen 56.
The head-up display also highlights two images 68, 70 that have been captured using the image capture system 1 of the present invention. The captured images were geo-tagged on capture by the image capture system (using GPS coordinates supplied by the satellite navigation system) and have subsequently been placed into the projected head-up image such that they appear in the location they were taken. Effectively they have been embedded into the landscape.
One (68) of the two images appears to the right hand side of the road 58. It is also noted that the display screen 56 of the navigation system displays a thumbnail image 72 of the captured image 68 at the point of capture on the displayed map image.
The second (70) of the two images appears in the top left hand portion of Fgure 3. This image 70 is in the process of being captured and the head-up display has additionally projected a set of control inputs 74 underneath the image in order to allow the user of the vehicle to tailor the image to their specifications.
As indicated by arrows 76 and 78 the user may select a "zoom in" or "zoom out" function before capturing the image. These functions may be selected by the user moving their body to either lean towards the screen or lean away from the screen, the user's body movement being detected and processed by the image capture module. Selection or rejection of the resultant captured image may also be achieved via the user leaning to the left or right as indicated by arrows 80 and 82. A thumbnail image 84 of captured image 70 also appears in the display 56 of the satellite navigation system.
The particular control inputs may be customised by the user.
