Abstract:
A video processing system (See Fig. 3, item 26) is provided for generating a foveated video display with sections having different resolutions (See Fig.3, display of location B). The system uses a network channel for communicating video images having video sections of different resolutions (See Fig. 3, item 46), and includes a video transmission system for processing and transmitting the received video images over the network channel. The system assigns a larger portion of the network channel's bandwidth to a video section with higher resolution. Further, the system includes a video receiving system for receiving and seamlessly combining the first and second video sections of different resolutions to form an output video image on a display device of a control system (See Fig. 3, items 48, 58 and 60). The control system can be operated to generate one or more video transmission system modules to control capturing, transmitting and processing of the video images (See Fig. 3, items 42 and 60).
