Abstract
An imaging system includes one or more cameras, a display and processing system. The system can include a processor for receiving image data sets to generate combined images of the field of view and a magnified stabilized portion. Various embodiments emulate a digital magnifier or digital mirror applications. In some implementations, the processor can employ the captured images to detect one or more objects of interest (e.g., one or more objects moving within the field of view), in particular the object being magnified, the users' hand and fingers, along with gestures and held tools to affect the acquisition, tracking and magnification of the active work area.
