METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROVIDING FEEDBACK TO A USER IN MOTION
Methods, systems, and computer program products are described for providing feedback to a user in motion. In operation, one or more measurements are performed in connection with one or more objects. Next, it is determined, based on the one or more measurements, that a collision may occur with at least one of the objects. Further, image data is received, for the at least one object, captured by an image capture device. Lastly, if it is determined that that the collision may occur with the at least one object, an image of the object is presented, utilizing the image data, via a display device that is viewable to a user.
1 . A method, comprising:
performing one or more measurements in connection with one or more objects;
determining, based on the one or more measurements, that a collision may occur with at least one of the objects;
receiving image data, for the at least one object, captured by an image capture device; and
if it is determined that that the collision may occur with the at least one object, presenting, utilizing the image data, an image of the object via a display device that is viewable to a user.
2 . The method of claim 1 wherein the image capture device includes an infrared image capture device.
3 . The method of claim 1 wherein the one or more measurements detects a motion relative to the at least one object.
4 . The method of claim 1 wherein the method is carried out by a vehicle.
5 . The method of claim 1 wherein the method is carried out by a portable electronic device.
6 . The method of claim 1 wherein the image capture device is included in a plurality of image capture devices configured to capture image data from respective different perspectives.
7 . The method of claim 6 wherein receiving the image data includes:
identifying at least a portion of the plurality of the image capture devices based on at least one of the motion, the first object, and the interaction; and
receiving the image data from the identified at least a portion.
8 . The method of claim 1 wherein the image capture device is included in a movable housing and receiving the image data includes sending an instruction to housing controller to move the movable housing based on at least one of the motion, the first object, and the interaction.
9 . The method of claim 1 wherein the display device is not included in a portable electronic device.
10 . The method of claim 1 wherein the image data is included in presentation information for presenting an attention output.
11 . An apparatus, comprising:
a measurement device configured to perform one or more measurements in connection with one or more objects;
an image capture device configured to capture image data for the at least one object; and
a controller in communication with the measurement device and the image capture device, the controller configured to:
determined, based on the one or more measurements, that a collision may occur with at least one of the objects; and
if it is determined that that the collision may occur with the at least one object, present, utilizing the image data, an image of the object via a display device that is viewable to a user.
12 . A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising:
code for performing one or more measurements in connection with one or more objects;
code for determining, based on the one or more measurements, that a collision may occur with at least one of the objects;
code for receiving image data, for the at least one object, captured by an image capture device; and
code for, if it is determined that that the collision may occur with the at least one object, presenting, utilizing the image data, an image of the object via a display device that is viewable to a user.
