EUROGRAPHICS 2000 / A. de Sousa, J.C. Torres Short Presentations A Novel Image-Based Rendering System With A Longitudinally Aligned Camera Array ∗ ∗ Jiang Li, Kun Zhou , Yong Wang and Heung-Yeung Shum Microsoft Research, China {jiangli, hshum}@ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract This paper introduces a novel image-based rendering system to capture, represent and render real world and synthetic scenes. In our system, a longitudinally aligned camera array is mounted on a rotating arm supported by a tripod. The cameras are always aimed along the radial direction. The scene is captured by the camera array that rotates along a circle. Each pixel of the captured images is indexed by 4 parameters, i.e. the rotation angle of the camera array, the longitudinal number of the camera, the image column number and the image row number. Given the position and the viewing direction of an observer, the system can generate novel views by interpolating the captured pixels in real time without any geometric representation. If the observer is constrained to move on a plane, the size of the scene data can be further reduced to that of an approximately 3.5D plenoptic function. Compared with light field and Lumigraph, our method provides an easier inside-looking-out capture configuration and a uniform spatial sampling pattern. Our system goe
