Abstract:
A system and, related method, is disclosed for enabling Chroma key compositing using a smart device, wherein an image/video of a subject situated in front of a portable monochromatic background is captured, and simultaneously layered upon a different desired background replacement that will replace only the monochromatic background captured. The portable monochromatic background structure can be an inflatable structure affixed with a plurality of lighting modules configured to ensure a uniform light distribution across the monochromatic background and separately ensure a uniform light distribution on the subject during the image/video capture. Moreover, a software application on a smart device can act as a system platform that enables for automatic light adjustment of the lighting modules on a portable monochromatic background to correct any light imperfections that impede color neutrality on the background, which would otherwise result in the inability to create broadcast quality background replacement content with a smart device using the monochromatic lighting platform disclosed herein.

Claim (Index 13):
A computer implemented system for Chroma key compositing and automated lighting adjustment, comprising:\n a background structure, the background structure comprising:\n a monochromatic color area comprising a plurality of monochromatic sub-areas; \n a subject region disposed in front of the monochromatic color area, the subject region comprising a plurality of sub-regions; \n a plurality of light sources illuminating the plurality of monochromatic sub-areas and/or plurality of sub-regions; and \n a background structure processor in operative communication with the plurality of light sources, the background structure processor identifies each light source of the plurality of light sources with a location data point in reference to the location of the respective light source on the background structure, wherein the background structure processor is configured to dim or brighten one or more light sources of the plurality of light sources; and \n a computing device comprising:\n a processor; \n a computing device display; \n a camera; \n a battery; and \n a software application, the software application in operative communication with the background structure processor, the software application comprising:\n a database management system (DBMS) that maintains user data, log-in credentials data, a background replacement library data, and created composites data; \n a compositing module, in digital communication with the DBMS, computing device display, and background structure processor, the compositing module:\n retrieves a background replacement image/video from the background replacement library data; \n engages the camera to focus a camera shot on the subject region and monochromatic area; \n superimposes the camera shot over the background replacement image/video; \n detects the monochromatic color area in the camera shot; \n removes visibility of the monochromatic color area, thereby displaying the background replacement image/video located behind monochromatic color area; \n executes image/video capture; and \n stores the captured image/video in the DBMS; and \n \n a lighting adjustment module, in digital communication with the compositing module, the lighting adjustment module:\n detects the monochromatic color area in the camera shot; \n executes a light detection analysis to determine the presence of any non-uniform illumination imposed upon the monochromatic color area; \n identifies the one or more monochromatic sub-areas exhibiting the presence of non-uniform illumination; \n accesses a pre-mapped location grid of the plurality of light sources on the background structure from the background structure processor via the compositing module, and associates the one or more monochromatic sub-areas exhibiting non-uniform illumination with one or more corresponding light sources; \n computes a corrective action for the one or more light sources corresponding to the one or more monochromatic sub-areas exhibiting non-uniform lighting, wherein the corrective action includes dimming or brightening the respective light source; and \n commands the background structure processor to execute the corrective action for the one or more light sources on the background structure.
