134 VIEW FRIENDLY MONITOR SYSTEMS US15854558 2017-12-26 US20180118130A1 2018-05-03 RAZMIK KARABED
A view friendly monitor system provides a monitor and a sequence of views that are regions of interest. The monitor can display a region of the camera view; the system is configured such that the displayed region of the camera view is a region of interest to the user. The displayed portion of the camera view changes to match the changing interests of the user. For example, a user that is interested to see a view in a direction beyond a certain edge of the monitor would move her head generally in an opposite direction. To see farther outside the edge, she needs to move her head farther in the opposite direction. In response to her head movement, the view friendly monitor system would change the region of interest based on the direction and the length of her head movement and display the new region of interest on the monitor.
