VIDEO SYSTEM WITH FRAME SYNTHESIS

Abstract:

A remote vehicle control system includes a vehicle mounted sensor system including a video camera system for producing video data. A data handling system is connected to a network to transmit data to and receive data from a remote teleoperation site. A virtual control system is configured to receive the video, provide a user with a live video stream supported by machine intelligence directed frame synthesis, and transmit control instructions to the remote vehicle over the network. The frame synthesis is supported by a convolutional neural network. The frame synthesis may be used to interpolate frames to increase effective frames per second. The frame synthesis may be used to extrapolate frames to replace missing or damaged video frames.
