Morphable 3D-Mosaics: A Hybrid Framework for Photorealistic Walkthroughs of Large Natural Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a hybrid (geometry& image-based) framework suitable for providing photorealistic walkthroughs of large, complex outdoor scenes at interactive frame rates. To this end, based just on a sparse set of real stereoscopic views from the scene, a set of morphable 3D-mosaics is automatically constructed first, and then, during rendering, a continuous morphing between those 3D-mosaics that are nearby to the current viewpoint is taking place. The morphing is both photometric, as well as geometric, while we also ensure that it proceeds in a physically valid manner, thus remaining transparent to the user. The effectiveness of our framework has been demonstrated in the 3D visual reconstruction of the Samaria Gorge in Crete, which is one of the largest and most beautiful gorges in Europe.

The European DHX project is introduced in this paper and the vision-based 3D content authoring tools that have been implemented as a core part of its framework are presented. These tools consist mainly of two interrelated components. The first one is a hybrid (geometry and image based) modeling and rendering system capable of providing photorealistic walkthroughs of real-world large landscapes ...
متن کاملNon-Photorealistic Walkthroughs Using Flash
We describe a method allowing users to walk through 3D scenes using Macromedia Flash player. The method is optimised for low data transfer rates and low demands on the displaying device, which makes it suited especially for mobile devices. The walkthroughs are partially pre-computed on a server and partially calculated directly on the PDA. Non-photorealistic rendering is used for more eye-pleas...
متن کاملDynamic Canvas for Non-Photorealistic Walkthroughs
The static background paper or canvas texture usually used for non-photorealistic animation greatly impedes the sensation of motion and results in a disturbing “shower door” effect. We present a method to animate the background canvas for non-photorealistic rendering animations and walkthroughs, which greatly improves the sensation of motion and 3D “immersion”. The complex motion field induced ...
متن کاملImage warping for compressing and spatially organizing a dense collection of images
Image-based rendering (IBR) systems create photorealistic views of complex 3D environments by resampling large collections of images captured in the environment. The quality of the resampled images increases significantly with image capture density. Thus, a significant challenge in interactive IBR systems is to provide both fast image access along arbitrary viewpoint paths and efficient storage...

Image Segmentation for Stylized Non-Photorealistic Rendering and Animation Alexander Kolliopoulos Master of Science Graduate Department of Computer Science University of Toronto 2005 This thesis approaches the problem of non-photorealistic rendering by identifying segments in the image plane and filling them using algorithms to render in artistic styles. Using segments as a 2D primitive for non...
