Range-Space Approach for Generalized Multiple Baseline Stereo and Direct Virtual View Synthesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper a new "range-space" approach, for rendering visual models using a network of multiple omnidirectional vision sensors (ODVS) is presented. This integrated approach allows for simultaneous extraction of 3-D range as well as visual models. The approach requires three distinct steps of analyzing multiple ODVS video input streams: 1) Search, 2) Match, and 3) Render. At the output, a user-specified view is rendered. This three-step process does not require 3D model of the scene to be provided.

A modular approach to virtual view creation for a scalable immersive teleconferencing configuration
This paper details a new modular approach to virtual view creation that is designed to work in conjunction with a proposed scalable teleconferencing configuration. This scalable system is configured using building blocks defined as Stereo Camera Analysis Blocks (SCAB). SCABs consist of axe-parallel narrow baseline stereo cameras. These provide design flexibility and improve the image analysis p...
متن کاملMulti-view Synthesis for an Extendable Teleconferencing System
Current teleconferencing configuration and synthesis solutions tend to be rigid and system specific. We present a new extendable system created from building blocks defined as Stereo Camera Analysis Blocks (SCAB). SCABs consist of axe-parallel narrow baseline stereo cameras. We define a new approach to virtual view creation from multiple images in our Multi-View Synthesis (MVS) block. MVS conta...
متن کاملEfficient Dense-Stereo and Novel-view Synthesis for Gaze Manipulation in One-to-one Teleconferencing
A new algorithm is proposed for novel-view synthesis, with particular application to teleconferencing. Given the video streams acquired by two cameras placed on either side of a computer monitor, the proposed algorithm synthesises images from a virtual camera in arbitrary position (typically located within the monitor area) to facilitate eye contact. The new technique is based on an improved, d...
متن کاملVirtual Reality Motion Parallax with the Facebook Surround-360 using a Depth Augmented Stereo Panorama
Recent interest in virtual reality has led to the development of 360-degree media platforms. In general, 360-degree images or videos can be observed using a head-mounted display (HMD) which tracks head position and renders images for each eye with low latency. Three-dimensional scenes can be portrayed by such displays by incorporating depth cues important to human perception of 3D position. Suc...
متن کاملOptimizing Disparity Candidates Space in Dense Stereo Matching
In this paper, a new approach for optimizing disparity candidates space is proposed for the solution of dense stereo matching problem. The main objectives of this approachare the reduction of average number of disparity candidates per pixel with low computational cost and high assurance of retaining the correct answer. These can be realized due to the effective use of multiple radial windows, i...
