Summary on Grant Application Form |

The aim of this project is to extend ideas of image-based rendering to video sequences. In contrast to most techniques, we will follow an approach based on interpolation techniques. Namely, rather than obtaining a 3D description of a scene, we will synthesise views by modelling changes in the 2D-image plane. The main advantage of this approach is that it is significantly simpler. The main disadvantage is that it does not allow 3D-object manipulation, but it is limited to virtual view generation. In spite of this limitation, interpolation is a suitable approach to practical applications in image-based rendering and it can provide a practical solution to interactive video displaying. This has many potential applications in interactive displaying and multimedia technology.The project will develop and implement techniques for analysis and visualisation aimed at displaying a moving scene from different points of view. The project will focus on one application: it will consider the generation and visualisation of multiple-view video streaming. The main aim is to be able to interactively control the view angle of a video. It will investigate the potential of this technology to visualise 3D scenes.
