ABSTRACT:
A system which captures multiple planar images of a scene taken from different perspectives and decomposes each of the captured those images into multiresolution images for storage in a distributable storage medium, such as an optical disk. The images on the storage medium are linked through a directory structure. During retrieval the user is allowed to browse various resolution images for selection purposes. After selection of the image, designation of the media type and designation of desired output resolution, the system reconstructs the images. The reconstructed images are converted into a depth image by interleaving slices of the images and then the depth image is output. Conversion into a depth image may require the creation of intermediate perspective views using interpolation.
