Development of Driving Simulator System based on Image-based Rendering Technique using Car-mounted Omni-video

Abstract

We have developed a driving simulator where Image-Based Rendering and Model-Based Rendering is combined. To achieve this, we realized realistic drawing and an efficient compression technique based on eigen images. This time, we developed removal efficient technique to get a better result and a technique which greatly reduce the sense of incompatibility in the curve. As a result, we succeeded in the automation of most of the fabrication process of rendering data, so we can convert the image data of a long section into the rendering data in a short term and use it for the driving simulator. In this system, we can reduce the cost which requires to model than before.
