A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11965714B2) outlines a method for predicting positions in images from different video sources, adjusting motion data, and generating modified images based on the comparison of data associated with different portions of the images. The method involves utilizing motion data from inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors coupled to the video sources, determining motion data adjustments, and generating modified images with correct positions and rotations within predetermined limits. Additionally, the method includes receiving video data from the video sources, such as a helmet and a weapon, and generating modified images with graphic indicia associated with identified objects in the external environment.

Furthermore, the patent describes a system and a non-transitory machine-readable medium with instructions for performing the method outlined in the claims. The system includes a processor and memory with instructions for predicting positions, adjusting motion data, and generating modified images based on data comparison. It also involves receiving video data from different video sources and generating modified images with overlapping fields of view. The system and machine-readable medium also include instructions for identifying objects in the external environment based on the position and orientation of the video sources and generating graphic indicia scaled based on distances between the video source and the identified objects. Overall, the patent details a comprehensive method, system, and medium for enhancing image processing and generation based on motion data and data comparison from multiple video sources.
