Explorations: Immersive Video

Edition - 2: Processing and coding of immersive video

Publication Year: 0
Status: released
Motivations: Computational imaging technology offers users ways for immersive experiences with six degrees-of-freedom in limited volume free navigation, providing more freedom of user movement than in 3DoF+. Eventually, full-6DoF will be achieved (any translation and rotation in space), synthesizing virtual viewpoints from multiple, fixed cameras set up in various arrangements (planar arrangement, cameras in an arc, 360 divergent, etc).
Objectives: To provide normative improvements on compression of 6DoF content on top of the state of the art anchor. The improvements are evaluated simultaneously on decoded views and synthesized views.

Edition - 3: Compression of dense representation of light fields

Publication Year: 0
Status: ongoing
Motivations: Recently, camera technology has evolved and new capturing devices are emerging. Such capturing devices can simultaneously acquire dense spatial and angular light information. Having such information we can extract dense multiviews, perform refocusing and estimate depth information. Such cameras are expected to be replaced with current cameras to acquire 3-D real-world visual data.
Objectives: New capturing devices can capture light field in one shot, having both spatial and angular light information. Due to higher dimension of such data, i.e. 4-D, the size of capture data is not only larger but also different from traditional camera images. Therefore, a new and compatible compression for such formats would be essential so that new services can be provided.
