| Abstract: |
View synthesis from arbitrary viewpoints is an important component of virtual reality. This work addresses the problem of synthesizing a novel view from an arbitrary position given two images only (stereo pair). The proposed algorithm creates new viewpoints allowing six degrees of freedom to the virtual camera, i.e., translations along the three coordinate axis, pan, tilt and rotation around its own optical axis. The method generates new views for a totally non-calibrated stereo system. The novelty of the method relies in the placement of the virtual camera and its effect on the view synthesis. The synthesized views showed good results when compared with views produced by well-known viewpoint synthesis methods. |
