Systems and methods for image-based light output

Abstract

Broadly, this disclosure discloses various computing technologies that include a processor in communication with an imaging device and with an illumination device. The processor receives a set of imaging data from the imaging device such that the processor is able to identify an object within the set of imaging data and determine a set of coordinates. The processor then sends the set of coordinates to the illumination device such that the illumination device can output an illumination based on the set of coordinates.

         31 . A method comprising:
 receiving, by a server, a video stream from a camera imaging a marked crosswalk over a road, wherein the video stream depicts a human crossing the road over the marked crosswalk;   detecting, by the server, the human in the video stream;   determining, by the server, a projected path of the human over the marked crosswalk based on the current path;   generating, by the server, a set of coordinates based on the projected path; and   sending, by the server, the set of coordinates to a light source such that the light source sources a light based on the set of coordinates as the human is moving in the projected path over the marked crosswalk, wherein the light accompanies the human crossing the road over the marked crosswalk and thereby visibly notifies a vehicular driver on the road of the human.   
     
     
         32 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light traces the human over the marked crosswalk. 
     
     
         33 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light illuminates the human over the marked crosswalk. 
     
     
         34 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light source is a single light emitting diode sourcing the light. 
     
     
         35 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light source is a plurality of light emitting diodes sourcing the light. 
     
     
         36 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light source sources the light while the light source is stationary. 
     
     
         37 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light is of a single color. 
     
     
         38 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the light is of a plurality of colors. 
     
     
         39 . The method of  claim 31 , wherein the projected path is rectilinear. 
     
     
         40 . The method of  claim 31 , further comprising:
 performing, by the server, a classification of the human after the human is detected, wherein the projected path is determined based on the classification.   
     
     
         41 . A system comprising:
 a light source; and   a server programmed to:
 receive a video stream from a camera imaging a marked crosswalk over a road, wherein the video stream depicts a human crossing the road over the marked crosswalk; 
 detect the human in the video stream; 
 determine a projected path of the human over the marked crosswalk based on the current path; 
 generate a set of coordinates based on the projected path; and 
 send the set of coordinates to the light source such that the light source sources a light based on the set of coordinates as the human is moving in the projected path over the marked crosswalk, wherein the light accompanies the human crossing the road over the marked crosswalk and thereby visibly notifies a vehicular driver on the road of the human. 
   
     
     
         42 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light traces the human over the marked crosswalk. 
     
     
         43 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light illuminates the human over the marked crosswalk. 
     
     
         44 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light source is a single light emitting diode sourcing the light. 
     
     
         45 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light source is a plurality of light emitting diodes sourcing the light. 
     
     
         46 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light source sources the light while the light source is stationary. 
     
     
         47 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light is of a single color. 
     
     
         48 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the light is of a plurality of colors. 
     
     
         49 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the projected path is rectilinear. 
     
     
         50 . The system of  claim 41 , wherein the server is further programmed to:
 perform a classification of the human after the human is detected, wherein the projected path is determined based on the classification.
