Photographic Depth of Field Blur Rendering
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of our study is to introduce a new method for depth of field blur simulation used for compositing real and synthetic images in a realistic way. Existing methods do not simulate accurately the depth of field blur produced by photographic equipment. The problem is twofold: photometric and geometric. Existing methods based on convolution do not produce a realistic photometric rendering compared to real photograph and the photographic blur contains patterns associated with the diaphragm shape, neither handled by existing methods. Our method, based on image processing, addresses these two issues by following the photographic image creation process. It can be used on synthetic or real images, essentially for special effects compositing.

Hardware Architecture for Fast Camera Effects Rendering
Current commercial graphics cards do not offer fast enough special hardware to render camera effects like motion blur or depth of field. Even the pixel shader, which is useful in many rendering algorithms, is unable to support these effects. This paper presents a hardware structure, which provides fast rendering capability for realizing filtering effects, including also depth of field and motio...
متن کاملDepth of Field Rendering Algorithms for Virtual Reality
Depth of field, both a focus and depth cue, is not currently implemented in wearable virtual reality displays today even though there is evidence that suggests it could significantly improve the immersive experience. In this project I have investigated different depth of field rendering algorithms that give accurate reproductions of depth of field (retinal blur) on scenes displayed in virtual r...
متن کاملUsing Opaque Image Blur for Real-time Depth-of-field Rendering
While depth of field is an important cinematographic means, its use in real-time computer graphics is still limited by the computational costs that are necessary to achieve a sufficient image quality. Specifically, color bleeding artifacts between objects at different depths are most effectively avoided by a decomposition into subimages and the independent blurring of each sub-image. This decom...

متن کاملPerceptually Accurate Depth of Field Rendering
Focus cues, accommodation and retinal-image blur, are challenging to achieve with wearable virtual reality displays today. An accurate reproduction of these cues are critical in providing a visually immersive experience. Yet, many consumer displays on the market do not support either of these cues. In this project, I plan on exploring fast, efficient algorithms for rendering a retinal-image blu...
