Methods and apparatus for tracking a light source in an environment surrounding a device
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for tracking a light source in an environment surrounding a device. In an exemplary embodiment, a method includes analyzing an image of an environment surrounding a device to detect a light source and calculating a location of the light source relative to the device. The method also includes receiving motion data corresponding to movement of the device, and adjusting the location of the light source based on the motion data. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes an image sensor that acquires an image of an environment surrounding a device, and a motion tracking element that outputs motion data that corresponds to motion of the device. The apparatus also includes a tracker that analyzes the image to detect a light source, calculates a location of the light source relative to the device, and adjusts the location of the light source based on the motion data.
