چکیده
The iGLANCE project aims at researching the methods of receiving and rendering of free-view 3D-TV sequences. We describe the ongoing iGLANCE project and introduce the iGLANCE decoding and rendering system. It consists of free viewpoint video interpolation and coding. One of the key components of this system is view interpolation and its related challenges. There are two main application fields within iGLANCE: consumer and medical systems. In this article we discuss an example use case for a medical application that illustrates the need for the research and development in the iGLANCE framework.
