摘要:
An image data generating method and apparatus in which, when performing viewing point conversion processing on data of strings of parallax images each made up of plural images containing the parallax information, data of a new string of parallax images can be generated promptly. To this end, a lookup table showing the relation of correspondence between pixels of respective images making up an original string of parallax images and pixels of respective images of a new string of parallax images is prepared at the outset and stored in a lookup table memory 72. The pixel interchanging is effectuated, based on the lookup table, in order to effectuate viewing point conversion processing, to generate the data of the new string of parallax images.

The printed matter for regenerating a three-dimensional image derived from a parallax image string obtained on interpolating shape changes between images constituting the parallax image string is to be produced. An image printing device 1 morphs images constituting a plurality of sets of parallax image strings of an object obtained on photographing by an image pickup device 30. Based on the morphed parallax image string, the printed matter regenerating a three-dimensional image is formulated by the printer 50. The image printing device 1 executes processing in which the morphing rate of change is changed depending on the actuation of the actuating unit 100 to display the resulting image on the display unit 40. The image printing device 1 also morphs the image of the object photographed by the image pickup device 30 with an image stored in the external memory 80.

In a holographic stereogram creating device for creating a holographic stereogram by sequentially recording interference fringes between reference light and object light, which is obtained by sequentially spatial-modulating a plurality of images picked up from different observing points, as strip or dot elemental holograms, on one hologram recording material of an object light projection optical system for irradiating the hologram recording material with the spatially modulated object light, the object light projection optical system includes a slit arranged at a conjugate position of the hologram recording material for eliminating unnecessary light and a lens attached to the slit.
摘要:
An image data generating method for generating image data corresponding to a planar holographic stereogram is provided. First, an object or imaging device is rotated, while the distance between the object and the imaging device is kept substantially constant, for shooting plural images of different viewing angles by the imaging device. The image data of plural images is then corrected for keystone distortion. The image data corrected for keystone distortion is then processed with viewing point conversion processing for converting the viewing point for generating image data of images recorded on the holographic stereogram. In addition, image data including the information for plural images is compressed for storage in the internal storage device of the computer. With the image data having been read into the internal storage device, only the image data of an image required for image data conversion processing of generating image data of the image recorded on a holographic stereogram is expanded for executing image data conversion processing operations.
摘要:
In a system in which images having parallax data, and which are made up of plural images containing the parallax information, are processed with viewing point conversion, and the resulting new images having parallax data are used, as in a system of generating a holographic stereogram, a unit for generating the images having parallax data is to be independent from other unit or units. To this end, the information necessary to perform viewing point conversion processing of converting the viewing point for an object is attached to images having parallax data when the images having parallax data have been produced. When the images having parallax data is exchanged between the unit for generating the images having parallax data and other unit or units, the exchanged images having parallax data need to be those to which the information has been attached.

A method and an apparatus for creating a holographic stereogram are provided for canceling noises localized to infinity and offering a high-quality hologram. The creating method is executed to display an image corresponding to a coordinate location on the hologram recording medium on the display unit, condense the laser beam transmitted through the display unit as an object beam at the coordinate location of the hologram recording medium, and apply part of the laser beam before transmission through the display unit as a reference beam onto the hologram recording medium, for sequentially forming stripped or dotted holographic elements on the hologram recording medium. The creating apparatus includes a first diffuser panel located close to the display unit, a mask, and a second diffuser panel, the latter two of which are located immediately before the hologram recording medium. The mask has an opening corresponding to the width of the holographic element. The second diffuser panel serves to one-dimensionally diffuse the object beam transmitted through the opening of the mask. The first diffuser panel is relocated at the exposure of each holographic element.

A parallax image string pickup apparatus can attract the gaze of the person being shot to make it stable without making the person nervous about the camera operation when the person is shot from a plurality of different angles and, at the same time, provide the person or object 31 with necessary information for the shooting operation including the position of the person in the frame of the viewfinder of the camera of the camera unit 32 and other shooting conditions. The parallax image string pickup apparatus 1 includes a camera unit 32 screened from the object 31, and a half mirror 40 is arranged between the camera unit 32 and the object 31. As the half mirror 40 shows an image of the object 31, the gaze of the object 31 is attracted to the half mirror 40 before and during a shooting operation.
摘要:
In generating a parallax image string used for generating a holographic stereogram, the image quality of a stereoscopic image generated from the parallax image string is to be maintained as the time needed in imaging the parallax image string is shortened. To this end, an optimum number of image frames of each of plural parallax image strings are photographed in agreement with the localized position of the reproduced image of a generated holographic stereogram. The image processing is executed for equating the numbers of frame images of the parallax image strings. The parallax image strings having the equal number of the frame images of the parallax image strings are synthesized by, for example, chroma key synthesis to generate a new parallax image string.
