In this paper, the problem of a viewer's head tracking in a desktop-based interactive stereoscopic display system is considered. A fast and low-cost approach to the problem is important for such a computing environment. The system under consideration utilizes a shuttle glass for stereoscopic display. The proposed method makes use of an image taken from a single low-cost video camera. By using a simple feature extraction algorithm, the obtained points corresponding to the image of the user-worn shuttle glass are used to estimate the glass center, its local 'yaw' angle, as measured with respect to the glass center, and its global 'yaw' angle as measured with respect to the camera location. With these estimations, the stereoscopic image synthetic program utilizes those values to interactively adjust the two-view stereoscopic image pair as displayed on a computer screen. The adjustment is carried out such that the so-obtained stereoscopic picture, when viewed from a current user position, provides a close-to-real perspective and depth perception. However, because the algorithm and device used are designed for fast computation, the estimation is typically not precise enough to provide a flicker-free interactive viewing. An error concealment method is thus proposed to alleviate the problem. This concealment method should be sufficient for applications that do not require a high degree of visual realism and interaction.

Purpose With the rapid evolution of the OTT platform, this study addresses a notable gap in the existing literature by examining the impact of celebrity involvement in OTT contents on the intention to visit the country. We explore the intricate mechanisms through which the audience's sense of telepresence, facilitated by OTT technology, and parasocial relationships with celebirities contribute to the formation of the national image and, consequently, influence the intention to visit the country. Design/methodology/approach This study applied Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) using survey data from 222 participants. Findings Our findings reveal a positive effect of celebrity involvement on both telepresence and parasocial relationship. Additionally, we observe a positive relationship between telepresence and parasocial relationship. The study further highlights the impact of these factors on the cognitive and affective national images. The cognitive and affective national images, in turn, positively influence the overall national image, ultimately impacting the intention to visit the country. This research contributes to the understanding of the interplay between psychological factors related to viewer-celebrity relationships and the technical characteristics of OTT contents in shaping national images and travel intentions.

Close communication between clinicians and dental technicians is an important factor in providing successful prostheses. The exchange of opinions with laboratories has mainly been in the form of written prescriptions and a photos, but it has been reported that information transmission may be limited. Currently, as digital technology-based prosthesis fabrication is common, 3D image objects can be stored on the web and can be easily viewed through a mobile web browser. In this article, we introduce cases where the design of the prosthesis was improved by designing the prosthesis using CAD software and reviewing the prosthesis designed with the clinical side through a web viewer. Through this protocol, it was possible to improve the occlusal surface and crown contour, the opposing teeth condition, the size of the gingival embrasure, and the shape of pontic. The process of sharing, discussing, and modifying the prosthesis design with the clinician and technician through a web viewer contributes to reflecting the diversity of oral conditions and individualized needs, thereby helping to make functional and esthetic prostheses.

3D stereoscopic viewing of large scale imagery, such as aerial photography and satellite images, needs different parallaxes relative to the display scale. For example, when a viewer sees a stereoscopic image of aerial photography, the optimal parallax of its zoom-in image should be smaller than that of its zoom-out. Therefore, relative parallax adjustment according to the display scale is required. Merely adjusting the spacing between stereo images is not appropriate because the depths of the whole image are either exaggerated or reduced entirely. This paper focuses on the improving stereoscopic viewing with a single remote sensing image and a digital surface model (DSM). We present the parallax adjustment technique to maximize the 3D realistic effect and the visual comfort. For remote sensing data, DSM height value can be regarded as disparity. There are two possible kinds of methods to adjust the relative parallax with a single image performance. One is the DSM compression technique: the other is an adjustment of the distance between the original image and its stereo-mate. In our approach, we carried out a test to evaluate the optimal distance between a single remote sensing image and its stereo-mate, relative to the viewing scale. Several synthetic stereo-mates according to certain viewing scale were created using a parallel projection model and their anaglyphs were estimated visually. The occlusion of the synthetic stereo-mate was restored by the inpainting method using the fields of experts (FoE) model. With the experiments using QuickBird imagery, we could obtain stereoscopic images with optimized parallax at varied display scales.

In this paper, we proposed a system that visualizes a hologram device in 3D by utilizing the CT image segmentation function based on artificial intelligence deep learning. The input axial CT medical image is converted into Sagittal and Coronal, and the input image and the converted image are divided into 3D volumes using ResUNet, a deep learning model. In addition, the volume is created by segmenting the tumor region in the segmented liver image. Each result is integrated into one 3D volume, displayed in a medical image viewer, and converted into a video. When the converted video is transmitted to the hologram device and output from the device, a 3D image with a sense of space can be checked. As for the performance of the deep learning model, in Axial, the basic input image, DSC showed 95.0% performance in liver region segmentation and 67.5% in liver tumor region segmentation. If the system is applied to a real-world care environment, additional physical contact is not required, making it safer for patients to explain changes before and after surgery more easily. In addition, it will provide medical staff with information on liver and liver tumors necessary for treatment or surgery in a three-dimensional manner, and help patients manage them after surgery by comparing and observing the liver before and after liver resection.

Among the main technologies to implement 3D TV succeeding HDTV, multi-viewpoint image display technique is rising as an important issue, which can display the viewpoint-dependent images corresponding to viewer's position. This paper presents a novel method that solves too much computational overload that is main drawback of previous methods. Using down sampling technique, multiresolution EPIs are made from multi-viewpoint image set and trace lines are detected in the lowest resolution EPI. The parameters of detected trace lines are transferred to higher resolution EPIs and revised by utilizing the information of the previous resolution EPI. This procedure is iterated until orignal resolution EPI. Using the proposed method, we have achieved the reduction of computational time and the robustness to noise in comparison to previous method.

In this paper, a new scheme for image conversion of the 2D input images into the stereoscopic 3D images by using differential shifting method is proposed. First, the relative depth information is estimated by disparity and occlusion information from the input stereo images and then, each of image objects are segmented by gray-level using the estimated information. Finally, through the differential shifting of the segmented objects according to the horizontal parallax, a stereoscopic 3D image having optimal stereopsis is reconstructed. From some experimental results, it is found that the horizontal disparity can be improved about 1.6dB in PSNR for the reconstructed stereo image using the proposed scheme through comparing to that of the given input image. In the experiment of using the commercial stereo viewer, the reconstructed stereoscopic 3D images, in which each of the segmented objects are horizontally shifted in the range of 4 ∼5 pixels are also found to have the mast improved stereopsis.
