3-Dimensional Processing of 2-Dimensional Images by D/R Mapping Method
Makoto KIKUCHI, Hiroshi SASAMA
For the purpose of making an effective Hi-vision computer graphics, we are
developing a "Three-dimentional Real Image Mapping System " (TRIMS), which
can utilize and edit natural images effectively. In this system, a man inputs
imformation about the form of an object and lighting condition in natural
image, the system then estimates the surface texture of the object, and produces
a new image under arbitrary conditions of camera position and light. The system
makes it possible to synthesize two images of different conditions, and utilize
image reasources of Hi-vision computer graphics fully.
