METHOD OF REPLACING OBJECTS IN VIDEO STREAM Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC H04N5/272 H04N13/02 G06K9/34 G06T15/40 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to image processing, in particular, to a method of objects replacement in a video stream. Said technical result is achieved due to that a stereoscopic field image is created, which serves to measure a distance from the camera and to determine foreground objects, background objects and overlapping objects. Stereoscopic image can be provided by a 3D camera or it can be created by means of a signal coming from one or several cameras. Texture of objects to be replaced can be static or dynamic. Method requires no special equipment to monitor the camera position, and it can be used for live content, as well as an archive material. Invention uses the advantage of initial material to be replaced, in a specific case, when the object to be replaced is filled in electronically.

EFFECT: technical result is inserting replacement images into a video stream without the need to receive and transmit parameters of the camera via a sensor equipment mounted on a tripod and without the need of a static model of the real environment.
