Virtualized Reality: Constructing Virtual Worlds from Real Scenes
Journal Article, IEEE Multimedia, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 34 - 47, 1997
Abstract
A new visual medium, Virtualized Reality, immerses viewers in a virtual reconstruction of real-world events. The Virtualized Reality world model consists of real images and depth information computed from these images. Stereoscopic reconstructions provide a sense of complete immersion, and users can select their own viewpoints at view time, independent of the actual camera positions used to capture the event.
