Abstract :
This paper presents a system for producing multiperspective panoramas for long scenes from dense collections of images. Multi-perspective panoramas are generated by combining different perspectives, including original and novel perspectives. The latter are rendered by our synthesis algorithm, which uses estimated depth information to remove distortions caused by depth parallax. Then, different perspectives are properly combined without noticeable visual artifacts caused by both color inconsistencies and structural misalignments.
