A Photographic Composition Assistant for Intelligent Virtual 3D Camera Systems

چکیده

A human photographer can frame an image and enhance its composition by visualizing how elements in the frame could be better sized or positioned. The photographer resizes elements in the frame by changing the zoom lens or by varying his or her distance to the subject. The photographer moves elements by panning. An intelligent virtual photographer can apply a similar process. Given an initial 3D camera view, a user or application specifies highlevel composition goals such as Rule of Thirds or balance. Each objective defines either a One-D interval for image scaling or a Two-D interval for translation. Two-D projections of objects are translated and scaled in the frame according to computed optima. These Two-D scales and translates are mapped to matching changes in the 3D field of view (zoom), dolly-in or out varying subject distance, and rotating the aim direction to improve the composition.

Environmental Perception for Intelligent Vehicles Using Catadioptric Stereo Vision Systems

This paper presents advantages of catadioptric camera systems for robotic applications using the example of autonomous vehicles and driver assistance systems. We propose two different catadioptric stereo camera systems to improve environmental perception. Both stereo camera systems consist of at least one catadioptric camera, which combines a lens with a hyperbolic mirror and provides a panoram...

Camera Arrangement in Visual 3D Systems using Iso-disparity Model to Enhance Depth Estimation Accuracy

In this paper we address the problem of automatic arrangement of cameras in a 3D system to enhance the performance of depth acquisition procedure. Lacking ground truth or a priori information, a measure of uncertainty is required to assess the quality of reconstruction. The mathematical model of iso-disparity surfaces provides an efficient way to estimate the depth estimation uncertainty which ...

A Virtual Simulator for Photogrammetry

This paper shows the use of synthetic images obtained from digital surface models to optimize, on the one hand, photogrammetric planning, and on the other, computer animations. Synthetic images are generated in a photogrammetric simulator built up to project 3D models onto images, after defining a virtual (or real) photogrammetric camera with known inner orientation parameters. The outer orient...

Darshak - An Intelligent Cinematic Camera Planning System

A virtual camera is a powerful communicative tool in virtual environments. It is a window through which a viewer perceives the virtual world. For virtual environments with an underlying narrative component, there is a need for automated camera planning systems that account for the situational parameters of the interaction and not just the graphical arrangement of the virtual world. I propose a ...
