Method and apparatus for providing information to a user observing a multi view content
Some embodiments of a method may include defining a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display based on a position of a viewer; and when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, triggering one or more incentive effects. Some embodiments of an apparatus may include a processor; and a memory-storing device storing instructions operative, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to: define a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone, for observing a multi view content displayed on a display based on a position of a viewer; and when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, trigger one or more incentive effects.
1. A method comprising:
defining a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display screen based on a position of a viewer; and
when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, triggering one or more incentive effects, applied to the displayed multi view content.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the positioning zone and the triggering area both have a pyramidal shape.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise one or more visual cues indicating a direction in the multi view content displayed on the display screen.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the multi view content having been acquired by an acquisition device, the positioning zone is established based on one or more obtained acquisition parameters of the acquisition device and one or more obtained parameters of the display screen.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multi view content is displayed with a parallax effect, the parallax effect generated based on a detected head position of the viewer.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a darkening effect to darken the display screen depending on the viewer position within the triggering area.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the darkening effect decreases the brightness of the multi view content displayed on the display screen when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases, and conversely.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the darkening effect increases linearly with the angle of view of the viewer position.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more incentive effects change when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area changes.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a parallax intensity effect to adapt an intensity of a parallax effect associated with a viewer movement within the triggering area.
11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the parallax intensity effect decreases the speed of movement of elements appearing in the multi view content displayed on the display screen, when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
12. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory-storing device storing instructions operative, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to:
define a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display screen based on a position of a viewer; and
when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, trigger one or more incentive effects, applied to the displayed multi view content.
13. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the positioning zone and the triggering area both have a pyramidal shape.
14. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise one or more visual cues indicating a direction in the multi view content displayed on the display screen.
15. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the instructions are operative to further cause the apparatus to display at least one of the positioning zone and the triggering area.
16. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a darkening effect to darken the display screen depending on the viewer position within the triggering area.
17. The apparatus according to claim 16 , wherein the darkening effect decreases the brightness of the multi view content displayed on the display screen when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases, and conversely.
18. The apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a parallax intensity effect to adapt an intensity of a parallax effect associated with a viewer movement within the triggering area.
19. The apparatus according to claim 18 , wherein the parallax intensity effect decreases the speed of movement of elements appearing in the multi view content displayed on the display screen, when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
20. A method comprising:
defining a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display screen based on a position of a viewer; and
when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, triggering one or more incentive effects,
wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise
a parallax intensity effect to adapt an intensity of a parallax effect associated with a viewer movement within the triggering area, and wherein the parallax intensity effect decreases the movement speed of elements appearing in the multi view content displayed on the screen when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
21. The method according to claim 20 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a darkening effect to darken the display screen depending on the viewer position within the triggering area, and wherein the darkening effect increases when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
22. An apparatus, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory-storing device storing instructions operative, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to:
define a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display screen based on a position of a viewer; and
when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, trigger one or more incentive effects,
wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise
a parallax intensity effect to adapt an intensity of a parallax effect associated with a viewer movement within the triggering area, and wherein the parallax intensity effect decreases the movement speed of elements appearing in the multi view content displayed on the screen when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
23. The method according to claim 22 , wherein the one or more incentive effects comprise a darkening effect to darken the display screen depending on the viewer position within the triggering area, and wherein the darkening effect increases when an angle of view associated with the viewer position located within the triggering area increases.
24. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions executable by at least one processor to perform a method, the method comprising:
defining a triggering area, the triggering area having a border with the border being arranged, at least partially, within a positioning zone for observing a multi view content displayed on a display screen based on a position of a viewer; and
when the viewer position is located within the triggering area, triggering one or more incentive effects, applied to the displayed multi view content.
