Extraction and Viewing Parameter Control of Objects in a 3D TV System

Abstract

A method of controlling the viewing condition of each object in a 3D TV system consisting of a camera array and an integral photography display is presented. The method allows users to easily extract objects in the input multi-view images, and to independently control the positions of the extracted objects on the display by using different rendering parameters for different objects. It enables interactive editing of 3D scenes such as emphasizing the depth of a certain object and changing the relative positions of objects, rather than presenting the captured scene as it is.
