Abstract
This paper addresses the synthesis of virtual views of people from multiple view image sequences. We consider the target area of the multiple camera “3D Virtual Studio” with the ultimate goal of capturing video-realistic dynamic human appearance. A mesh based reconstruction framework is introduced to initialise and optimise the shape of a dynamic scene for view-dependent rendering, making use of silhouette and stereo data as complementary shape cues. The technique addresses two key problems: (1) robust shape reconstruction; and (2) accurate image correspondence for view dependent rendering in the presence of camera calibration error. We present results against ground truth data in synthetic test cases and for captured sequences of people in a studio. The framework demonstrates a higher resolution in rendering compared to shape from silhouette and multiple view stereo.
