Head Tracking Three-Dimensional Integral Imaging Display Using Smart Pseudoscopic-to-Orthoscopic Conversion
2016
A novel head tracking three-dimensional (3D) integral imaging display is presented. By means of proper application of the smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion (SPOC) method, our display allows an extended viewing angle accommodated to the viewer's position which is obtained by a head/eye tracking system. Using the SPOC, new sets of elemental images are calculated and adapted to any specific viewing position. Additionally, the crosstalk which is typical in conventional integral imaging, is eliminated for a large viewing angle. By performing the rotation transformation in the simulated display, viewing a 3D scene with head rotation can be realized for robust display. Experimental resu…
Full parallax three-dimensional display from Kinect v1 and v2
2016
We exploit the two different versions of Kinect, v1 and v2, for the calculation of microimages projected onto integral-imaging displays. Our approach is based on composing a three-dimensional (3-D) point cloud from a captured depth map and RGB information. These fused 3-D maps permit to generate an integral image after projecting the information through a virtual pinhole array. In our analysis, we take into account that each of the Kinect devices has its own inherent capacities and individualities. We illustrate our analysis with some imaging experiments, provide the distinctive differences between the two Kinect devices, and finally conclude that Kinect v2 allows the display of 3-D images …
Multiple-Planes Pseudoscopic-to-Orthoscopic Conversion for 3D Integral Imaging Display
2015
In this paper, we propose an advanced pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion method for 3D integral imaging display systems. Compared to previous works, this method can generate more accurate images for orthoscopic 3D display using multiple reference planes and estimated depth information. 3D display results show the superiority of the proposed pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion method.
Towards 3D Television Through Fusion of Kinect and Integral-Imaging Concepts
2015
We report a new procedure for the capture and processing of light proceeding from 3D scenes of some cubic meters in size. Specifically we demonstrate that with the information provided by a kinect device it is possible to generate an array of microimages ready for their projection onto an integral-imaging monitor. We illustrate our proposal with some imaging experiment in which the final result are 3D images displayed with full parallax.
Progress in 3-D Multiperspective Display by Integral Imaging
2009
Three-dimensional (3-D) imaging techniques have the potential to establish a future mass-market in the fields of entertainment and communications. Integral imaging (InI), which can capture and display true 3-D color images, has been seen as the right technology for 3-D viewing for audiences of more than one person. Due to the advanced degree of its development, InI technology could be ready for massive commercialization in the coming years. This development is the result of a strong research effort performed over the past few years. In this sense, this paper is devoted to reviewing some recent advances in InI, which have allowed improvement in the response of InI systems to the problems of …
An overview of head tracking integral imaging three-dimensional display using smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion
2017
We overview a previously reported head tracking integral imaging three-dimensional (3D) display to extend viewing angle accommodated to a viewer's position without the crosstalk phenomenon. A head detection system is applied to obtain the head position and rotation of a viewer, and a new set of elemental images is then computed using the smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion (SPOC) method for head tracking 3D display. Experimental results validate the proposed method for high quality 3D display with large viewing angle.

This keynote address will present an overview of recent advances in Three-dimensional (3D) sensing, imaging and display. We shall discuss both passive sensing integral imaging and active sensing computational holographic imaging for 3D visualization, display, and image recognition. Mathematical analysis, computer simulations, and optical experimental results will be presented. There are numerous applications of these technologies including medical 3D imaging, 3D visualization, 3D identification and inspection, 3D television, 3D video, 3D multimedia, interactive communication, education, entertainment, and commerce.
Optimized integral imaging display by global pixel mapping
2006
Integral imaging systems are imaging devices that provide 3D images of 3D objects. When integral imaging systems work in their standard configuration the provided reconstructed images are pseudoscopic; that is, are reversed in depth. In this paper we present a technique for formation of real, undistorted, orthoscopic integral images by direct pickup. The technique is based on a global mapping of pixels of an elemental-images set. Simulated imaging experiments are presented.
Elemental images for integral-imaging display
2013
One of the differences between the near-field integral imaging (NInI) and the far-field integral imaging (FInI), is the ratio between number of elemental images and number of pixels per elemental image. While in NInI the 3D information is codified in a small number of elemental images (with many pixels each), in FInI the information is codified in many elemental images (with only a few pixels each). The later codification is similar that the one needed for projecting the InI field onto a pixelated display when aimed to build an InI monitor. For this reason, the FInI cameras are specially adapted for capturing the InI field with display purposes. In this contribution we research the relation…
Recent Advances in the Capture and Display of Macroscopic and Microscopic 3-D Scenes by Integral Imaging
2017
The capture and display of images of 3-D scenes under incoherent and polychromatic illumination is currently a hot topic of research, due to its broad applications in bioimaging, industrial procedures, military and surveillance, and even in the entertainment industry. In this context, Integral Imaging (InI) is a very competitive technology due to its capacity for recording with a single exposure the spatial-angular information of light-rays emitted by the 3-D scene. From this information, it is possible to calculate and display a collection of horizontal and vertical perspectives with high depth of field. It is also possible to calculate the irradiance of the original scene at different dep…
