Abstract

Background and aim

Most of the Mixed Reality models used in the surgical telepresence are suffering from the discrepancies in the boundary area and spatial‐temporal inconsistency due to the illumination variation in the video frames. The aim behind this work is to propose a new solution that helps produce the composite video by merging the augmented video of the surgery site and virtual hand of the remote expertise surgeon. The purpose of the proposed solution is to decrease the processing time and enhance the accuracy of merged video by decreasing the overlay and visualization error and removing occlusion and artefacts.

Methodology

The proposed system enhanced mean value cloning algorithm that helps to maintain the spatial‐temporal consistency of the final composite video. The enhanced algorithm includes the 3D mean value coordinates and improvised mean value interpolant in the image cloning process, which helps to reduce the sawtooth, smudging and discoloration artefacts around the blending region.

Results

The accuracy in terms of overlay error of the proposed solution is improved from 1.01mm to 0.80mm whereas the accuracy in terms of visualization error is improved from 98.8% to 99.4%. The processing time is reduced to 0.173 seconds from 0.211 seconds. The processing time and the accuracy of the proposed solution are enhanced as compared to the state of art solution.

Conclusion

Our solution helps make the object of interest consistent with the light intensity of the target image by adding the space distance that helps maintain the spatial consistency in the final merged video.
