Real object pickup method for real and virtual modes of integral imaging

Abstract

Pickup method adopting the modified algorithm to generate the elemental image from virtual objects is proposed to obtain the elemental image for real objects. In the proposed method, the number of capturing processes is reduced compared with the conventional multiple capturing method. The pseudoscopic image problem can be resolved by controlling the position and the direction of the imaging device in the proposed pickup system. The telecentric lens system is used to capture the orthographic scenes, which are divided and compounded into the elemental image. The validity of the proposal is proved by the experimental results of the pickup and the reconstruction. (c) The Authors. Published by SPIE under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.
