Abstract

A system related to synthetic colorization of real-time immersive environments is disclosed. The system discloses converting real-time camera data on-board a machine into signatures which describe the real-time camera data. The signatures are based on image properties, such as color, intensity, and illumination. The signatures, which require much less bandwidth than the real-time camera data to transmit, are transmitted to a remote operator station. The remote operator station utilizes the signatures to synthetically color and texture the environment surrounding the machine to provide an immersive environment to a user at the remote operator station.
