We show a simple and efficient way for render- ing arbitrary views from so-called free-form light fields , employing a convex free form camera sur- face and a set of arbitrarily oriented camera planes. This way directionally varying real-world imagery can be displayed without intermediate resampling steps, and yet rendering of free form light fields can be performed as efficiently as for two-plane- parameterized light fields using texture mapping graphics hardware. Comparable to sphere-based parameterizations, a single free form light field can represent all possible views of the scene without the need for multiple slabs, and it allows for rela- tively uniform sampling. Furthermore, we extend the rendering algorithm to account for occlusion in certain input views. We apply our method to syn- thetic and real-world datasets with and without ad- ditional geometric information and compare the re- sulting rendering performance and quality to two- plane-parameterized light field rendering. |
