A Parallelization Method for Multiview Stereo

This paper proposes a parallelization method for 3D shape reconstruction with voxel-based multiview stereo. In our approach, a target voxel space is divided into several domains, each of which is assigned to a different PE (processing element) to be processed in parallel. To reduce the amount of inter-PE communication, our proposed method divides the voxel space by planes passing through a virt...

Narrow Baseline Glsl Multiview Stereo

Our ultimate goal is a system capable of on-line 3D reconstruction from a monocular video and running on commodity hardware. One intrinsic module in such a system is a fast stereo algorithm, which produces depth maps from given views with known camera calibration and pose. Plane-sweep stereo algorithms are well-suited for real-time GPU implementation and can easily be generalised to true multi-...

On New View Synthesis Using Multiview Stereo

We show that application of modern multiview stereo techniques to the newview synthesis (NVS) problem introduces a number of non-trivial complexities. By simultaneously solving for the colour and depth of the new-view pixels we can eliminate the visual artefacts that conventional NVS-via-stereo suffers. The global occlusion reasoning which has led to considerable improvements in recent stereo a...

Optimizing stereo-to-multiview conversion for autostereoscopic displays

We present a novel stereo-to-multiview video conversion method for glasses-free multiview displays. Different from previous stereo-to-multiview approaches, our mapping algorithm utilizes the limited depth range of autostereoscopic displays optimally and strives to preserve the scene’s artistic composition and perceived depth even under strong depth compression. We first present an investigation...
