Abstract
Recently, a computational reconstruction method using an integral imaging technique, which is a promise three-dimensional display technique, has been actively researched. This method is that 3-D images can be digitally reconstructed at the required output planes by superposition of all of the inversely enlarged elemental images by using a hypothetical pinhole array model. However, the conventional method mostly yields reconstructed images having a low-resolution, because there are some intensity irregularities with a grid structure at the reconstructed mage plane by using square-type elemental images. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a novel computational integral imaging reconstruction (CIIR) method using round-type mapping model. Proposed CIIR method can overcome problems of non-uniformly reconstructed images caused from the conventional method and improve the resolution of 3-D images. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, both computational experiment and optical experiment are carried out and their results are presented.
