이안식 일체형 입체카메라는 줌인 시 고정된 컨버전스 포인트로 인해 촬영된 영상 시청할 때 어지러움을 유발하는 시각적 불편이 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이안식 일체형 입체카메라에서 줌인 시 발생되는 시각적 불편과 거리감의 변동을 방지하기 위해 3DCG환경에서 컨버전스 포인트 이동값에 대한 실험을 한다. 거리별 컨버전스 포인트 이동에 따른 입체영상을 시청하고 평가하는 주관 평가를 실시하여 시각적 불편을 최소화하는 컨버전스 포인트 조정기법을 제안할 수 있는 근거를 마련하고자 한다.

Recently, there has been much interest in realistic broadcasting that is a new field following HDTV and 3DTV. In general. the realistic broadcasting is composed of diverse components such as aquisition, authoring, compression, transmission and display, posing many challenging tasks. It is necessary that the types of realistic contents need to be defined prior to the development of realistic broadcasting systems. Based upon them, other components need to be designed and developed. In this paper, we propose some realistic contents suitable to the realistic broadcasting as well as techniques of generating them. Our proposed contents consist of stereoscopic multiview sequences, object-based stereoscopic images, depth map-based image compositing and the composition of stereoscopic real and graphics images. Content generation techniques and their associated software modules are presented with realistic images produced from our experiments. Those contents are produced to deliver stereoscopic perception, immersion and realism to the users as shown in our experimental results.

In this paper, we propose a method of producing a stereoscopic image from multiple images captured from a monoscopic camera. By translating a camera in the horizontal direction, left and right images are chosen among N captured images. For this, image edges are extracted and a rotational angle is estimated from edge orientation. Also, a translational vector is also estimated from the correlation of projected image data. Then, two optimal images are chosen and subsequently compensated using the rotational angle as well as the translational vector in order to make a satisfactory stereoscopic image. The proposed method was performed on thirty-two test image set. The subjective visual fatigue test was carried out to validate the 3D quality of stereoscopic images. In terms of visual fatigue, the 3D satisfaction ratio reached approximately 84%.

가상현실은 현실에 구애받지 않고 상사의 세계를 현실과 같이 만들어 내어 인체의 모든 감각기관이 인위적으로 창조된 세계에 몰입됨으로써 현실에 있는 것처럼 느낄 수 있는 사이버스페이스이다. 본 논문에서는 청취자의 머리움직임에 따라 머리 추적기로부터 수신된 정보로서 음향의 방향감 간의 상관모델을 구성하여 시스템내의 S/W 모듈에 전달하는 인터페이스를 구축하고, 이를 토대로 머리 움직임 변화에 부합되는 실감음향을 생성하고, 영상도 함께 동기화하여 몰입감을 증대시키는 실감음향 인터페이스에 대한 개발에 대해서 논의한다.

In this research, we have developed a virtual interview simulation system that utilizes the 3D stereoscopic technology. For this virtual simulation can play individual question stereoscopic movies using seamless loop technology, it provides realistic environment and interviewee with 3D filmed interviewer increasing reliable experience for interviewees. Implementing question-pool system and real-time construction of questionnaires is also available so that the interviewee can train and prepare for the various situations. This will reduce the effort for work power, time, place and cost, opening for a possibility of utilizing for many other areas such as linguistics study and public sector.

The objective of this study was to examine the possibility of utilizing the immersion stereoscopic image with a curved-screen-display as a tool for evaluating the landscape. The curved-screen-display ensures the continuity of the image and can be simultaneously evaluated by many people. Fifty-meter-wide Gangnamdaero Boulevard in Seoul was selected for this study, and the simulation was done using computer graphics. With the computer simulation, a questionnaire on landscape preferences was conducted according to different visual environments (immersion, non-immersion) and different projection types(stereoscopic or plane image). In the results of this study, the landscape preference was largely dependent on the immersion environment. Using the immersion-type simulation, the observer can easily evaluate the preference with higher judgment power. The stereoscope or plane projection type does not have any significant result in terms of its judgment power. This result implies that it is very important to strengthen the sense of immersion by expanding the screen into an angled view in which the observer can become immersed while making and projecting the simulation to evaluate the landscape. As a landscape evaluation tool for examining the efficiency and usefulness of immersion simulation, this study has limitations in that it controls many factors in street landscape that adversely affect judgment. Accordingly, a detailed comparison and verification of the stereoscopic image in various environments, including street width and building height ratio, must be conducted.

As a variety of HMD(Head Mounted Display) has come out, the production of 3D images onto which VR(Virtual Reality) technologies are grafted has been contributed to activating the production of image contents depending on a tangible or immersing type. VR-based image contents have enlarged their applicability across the entertainment industry from animation and game to realistic images. At the same time, the solution development for producing VR image contents has also gained elasticity. However, among those production solutions which have been used until now, fixed stereo camera based photographing has a limit that the binocular disparity of a user is fixed. This does not only restrict a way of expression a producer intends to direct, but also may cause the effect of 3D or space not to be sensed enough as view condition is not considered enough in a user's side. This study is aimed at resolving with skills applying in the latter part of 3D image production the problem that convergence points may be adjusted with restriction, which tends to happen at the time of the production of VR image contents. The later stage of the 3D imaging work analyzes and applies to game engines the significance of adjusting convergence points through the visualization of binocular disparity so that it is available to implement a function that the points could be controlled at random by a user.

최근, 실감 영상에 대한 관심과 요구가 증가하면서 신개념 서비스인 3차원 다시점(Multi-view) 방송에 대한 연구가 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 이와 더불어 광고와 게시를 목적으로 입체 영상과 입체 디스플레이 장치의 수요가 증가하고 있어, 앞으로 다시점 영상 콘텐츠와 디스플레이 장치가 활발하게 보급될 전망이다. 다시점 영상 콘텐츠는 제작 단계에서 컴퓨터 그래픽스 객체를 합성하면 보다 목적에 부합하는 콘텐츠를 제작할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다시점 카메라로부터 얻은 RGB 텍스쳐 데이터와 깊이 테이터에 컴퓨터 그래픽스 객체를 합성하여 다시점 합성 영상을 생성하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한, 제작된 다시점 합성 영상을 검증하고 재생하는 다시점 비디오 뷰어를 설계, 구현 한다. 가상의 다시점 영상에 그래픽스 객체를 합성하는 방법은 후 합성 기반으로, 임의의 그래픽스 객체 모델을 생성하여 깊이 정보를 부여하고, 가상 시점 영상의 생성과 동일한 방법으로 그래픽스 객체의 각 시점별 영상을 생성한다. 끝으로 깊이정보를 사용하여 가상 시점 영상의 적절한 좌표공간으로 그래픽스 객체를 삽입한다. 그래픽스 합성의 정확성 검증을 위해 다시점 그래픽스 합성 영상을 디스플레이하는 뷰어는 2D 및 입체를 모두 지원하고, view switching, frozen moment, view sweeping 등의 interactive special effect기법과 다양한 포맷의 저장이 가능하다. 또한, 입체 영상의 실험에서는 그래픽 객체의 입체감 조절을 위해 실제 카메라 시점 간에 필요한 중간시점영상의 개수를 결정할 수 있다.

In order to simulate a depth-of-field effect in real world, there have been several researches in computer graphics field. It can represent an out-of-focused scene by calculating focal plane. When a point in a 3D coordinate lies on further or nearer than focal plane, the point is presented as a blurred circle on image plane according to the characteristic of the aperture and the lens. We can generate a realistic image by simulating the effect because it provides an out-of-focused scene like human eye dose. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate a disparity value of a viewer using a customized stereoscopic eye-tracking system and a GPU-based depth-of-field control method. They enable us to generate more realistic images reducing side effects such as dizziness. Since stereoscopic imaging system compels the users to fix their focal position, they usually feel discomfort during watching the stereoscopic images. The proposed method can reduce the side effect of stereoscopic display system and generate more immersive images.
