Real-Time Free-Viewpoint Video Generation Using Multiple Cameras and a PC-Cluster

摘要

In this paper, we propose a system generating free-viewpoint video using multiple cameras and a PC-cluster in real-time. Our system firstly reconstructs a shape model of objects by the visual cone intersection method, secondly transforms the shape model represented in terms of a voxel form into a triangular patch form, thirdly colors vertexes of triangular patches, lastly displays the shape-color model from the virtual viewpoint directed by a user. We describe details of our system and show some experimental results.
