Abstract :
We introduce a scheme for the production of LDV (Layered Depth Video) content, based on capturing from a hybrid camera system, consisting of two time of flight and five CCD cameras and introduce a post production step, based on Grab - Cut segmentation, which significantly improves the quality of the end result. The proposed improvement step can be done fully automatically, based on initialization through estimated depth images.
