Title
Construction Of Omnidirectional Images For Image-Based Virtual Studio
Abstract
To generate highly realistic scenes of a virtual studio, we are developing technology of a new virtual studio based on image components from real videos instead of CG. And we carl this system an Image-Based Virtual Studio. Two types of image components are now being developed for the system. These are an environmental image component for long distant view and a three-dimensional image component for short distant view.We have newly developed a principal-point alignment camera head for composing a large number of camera images to a high-resolution omnidirectional image as the environmental image component. We constructed an omnidirectional image (16,000 x 16,000 pixels) from about 1000 camera images, and finally could compose them to the whole view image seamlessly. We also experimentally developed a high-definition image-based virtual studio with these two types of image components. And the system has been confirmed as useful for TV program production.
