Abstract:We propose a 3D video system that uses environmental stereo cameras to display a target object from an arbitrary viewpoint. This system is composed of the following stages: image acquisition, foreground segmentation, depth field estimation, 3D modeling from depth and shape information, and arbitrary view rendering. To create 3D models from captured 2D image pairs, a real-time segmentation algorithm, a fast depth reconstruction algorithm, and a simple and efficient shape reconstruction method were developed.
