In this paper, a new algorithm by using 3D warping technique to effectively fill holes that are produced when creating a virtual-viewpoint image is proposed. A hole is defined as the region that cannot be seen in the reference view when a virtual view is created. In the proposed algorithm, to reduce the blurring effect that occurs on the hole region filled by conventional algorithms and to enhance the texture quality of the generated virtual view, Exemplar Based In-painting algorithm is used. The boundary noise which occurs in the initial virtual view obtained by 3D warping is also removed. After 3D warping, we estimate the relative location of the background to the holes and then pixels adjacent to the background are filled in priority to get better result by not using only adjacent object's information. Also, the temporal inconsistency between frames can be reduced by expanding the search region up to the previous frame when searching for most similar patch. The superiority of the proposed algorithm compared to the existing algorithms can be shown through the experimental results.

In the field of Virtual Reality, many studies have been reported. Especially, there are many studies on generating virtual creatures on computer systems. In this paper we propose an algorithm to automatically generate 3D fish models from 2D images which are printed in illustrated books, pictures or handwritings. At first, 2D fish images are captured by means of image scanner. Next, the fish image is separated from background and segmented to several parts such as body, anal fin, dorsal fin, ectoral fin and ventral fin using the proposed method“Active Balloon model”. After that, users choose front view model and top view model among six samples, respectively. 3D model is automatically generated from separated body, fins and the above two view models. The number of patches is decreased without any influence on the accuracy of the generated 3D model to reduce the time cost when texture mapping is applied. Finally, we can get any kinds of 3D fish models.

본 논문에서는 임의의 알려지지 않은 조명 상황 하에서 3차원 객체의 텍스처 영상 한 장을 이용하여 광원의 위치를 추정하고 이를 이용해 조명에 의해 왜곡되어 있는 얼굴 영상을 재조명하는 기법을 제안한다. 우선 주어진 텍스처 영상으로부터 광원의 위치를 추정하기 위해 법선 벡터와 가중 양선형 보간을 이용하여 가상 복사조도 반구를 만들었다. 이를 이용해 추정된 주변광과 확산광 계수로 재조명 방정식을 도출하였다. 얼굴 텍스처 영상에서의 그림자와 음영을 원색으로 복원하는 알고리즘의 효율성과 정확성을 보이기 위해 광원의 위치 추정, 재조명, 얼굴 인식 등의 다양한 실험 결과를 보였다. 실험결과에 의하여 제안한 알고리즘은 조명에 강인한 얼굴 인식시스템뿐만 아니라 3차원 디스플레이에서의 작업 시 시각적 피로감을 줄이고 작업 효율을 높일 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Recently, Virtual reality parts is applied in various fields of industry. In this paper we developed basic components for virtual robot control system interfaced with real environment. For this, a real robot with virtual interface module is developed and virtual robot of similar image with real robot is created by putting on 3D graphic texture to the real robot. To build an unknown environment to be linked with virtual environment, we proposed a hough transformation based algorithm. Our proposed algorithm consists of navigation module by using fuzzy engine and map building module. Experiments using a developed robot illustrate the method.

In this paper, we propose a multi-view stereoscopic image synthesis algorithm for 3DTV system using depth information with an RGB texture from a depth camera. The proposed algorithm synthesizes multi-view images which a virtual convergence camera model could generate. Experimental results showed that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than those of conventional methods.

Recently, 3D related technology has become a hot topic for IT. 3D technologies such as 3DTV, Kinect and 3D printers are becoming more and more popular. According to the flow of the times, the goal of this study is that the general public is exposed to 3D technology easily. we have developed a web-based application program that enables 3D modeling of facial front and side photographs using a mobile phone. In order to realize 3D modeling, two photographs (front and side) are photographed with a mobile camera, and ASM (Active Shape Model) and skin binarization technique are used to extract facial height such as nose from facial and side photographs. Three-dimensional coordinates are generated using the face extracted from the front photograph and the face height obtained from the side photograph. Using the 3-D coordinates generated for the standard face model modeled with the standard face as a control point, the face becomes the face of the subject when the RBF (Radial Basis Function) interpolation method is used. Also, in order to cover the face with the modified face model, the control point found in the front photograph is mapped to the texture map coordinate to generate the texture image. Finally, the deformed face model is covered with a texture image, and the 3D modeled image is displayed to the user.

본 논문은 2D 가상 착의 시스템의 컬러 영상 분할 및 직물 텍스쳐 매핑에 관한 것이다. 제안된 시스템은 컬러 영상 분할에 의해 2D 의류 모델 영상으로부터 분할된 의류 형상 영역에, 명도 차분 맵에 기반하여 사용자가 선택한 새로운 직물 패턴을 가상적으로 착용시킬 수 있는 것이 특징이다. 제안된 시스템은 모델 의류의 색이나 명도에 상관없이, 선택된 의류 형상 영역의 음영 및 조명 특성을 유지하면서 직물 패턴이나 직물 색을 가상적으로 변경시킬 수 있다. 또한 각기 다른 스타일 혹은 전체적인 차림새를 위한 다양한 직물 패턴 조합을 신속하고 용이하게 시뮬레이션하고 비교 선택할 수 있다. 제안된 시스템은 다양한 디지털 환경에서 실시간 처리가 가능하고 비교적 자연스럽고 사실적인 가상 착의 스타일을 제공할 뿐만 아니라 수작업을 최소한으로 줄인 반자동화 처리가 가능하기 때문에 높은 실용성과 편리한 사용자 인터페이스를 제공할 수 있다. 제안된 시스템에 따르면, 실제 의복을 제작하지 않고도 직물 패턴 디자인이 의복의 외관에 미치는 영향을 시뮬레이션할 수 있으므로 직물 디자이너의 창작활동을 도와줄 수 있고, 또한 구매자의 의사결정을 지원해 B2B 또는 B2C 전자상거래 행위를 촉진할 수 있다.

Using video synthesis to depict flowing water is useful in virtual reality, computer games, digital movies and scientific computing. This paper presents a novel algorithm for synthesizing dynamic water scenes through a sample video based on a dynamic texture model. In the paper, we treat the video sample as a 2-D texture image. In order to obtain textons, we analyze the video sample automatically based on dynamic texture model. Then, we utilize a linear dynamic system (LDS) to describe the characteristics of each texton. Using these textons, we synthesize a new video for dynamic flowing water which is prolonged and non-fuzzy in vision. Compared with other classical methods, our method was tested to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency with several video samples.

Recent development in virtual and augmented reality increases the demand for content in many different fields. One of the fast ways to create content for VR is 3D modeling of real objects. In this paper we propose a system to reconstruct three-dimensional models of real objects from the set of two-dimensional images under the assumption that the subject does not has distinct features. We explicitly consider an object that is made of one or more surfaces and radiant constant energy isotropically. We design a low cost portable multi camera rig system that is capable of capturing images simultaneously from all cameras. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, comparison is made between 3D model and a CAD model. A simple algorithm is also proposed to acquire original texture or color of the subject. Using best pattern found after the experiments, 3D model of the Pyeongchang Olympic Mascot "Soohorang" is created to use as VR content.
