Abstract
Our goal is to augment a panorama with object movies in a visually 3D-consistent way. Notice that a panorama is recorded as one single 2D image and an object movie (OM) is composed of a set of 2D images taken around a 3D object. The challenge is how to integrate the above two sources of 2D images in a 3D-consistent way so that the user can easily manipulate object movies in a panorama. To solve this problem, we adopt a purely image-based approach that does not have to reconstruct the geometric models of the 3D objects to be inserted in the panorama. A critical issue of this method is how to generate the novel views required for showing an OM in different places of a panorama, and we have proposed a view morphing technique, called t-DBVM, to solve this problem. Our experiments have shown that this purely image-based approach can effectively generate visually convincing OM-augmented panoramas. This method has great potential for many applications that require integration of panoramas and object movies, such as virtual malls, virtual museum, and interior design.
