A Framework for Manipulating Multi-Perspective Image Using A Parametric Surface

Abstract

We have designed a framework for manipulating multi-perspective images. In this paper, we present (1) an accelerated multi-perspective rendering method, (2) a parametric surface based multi-perspective camera control method and (3) an interface to manipulate multi-perspective images. Our camera control method can express transition of camera parameters by deforming the parametric surface and manipulating control points. Our rendering method performs about 2.5 times faster than the previous method at best. We also show two application examples utilizing our methods.
