Abstract
In this paper, we describe a highly realistic 3D display system
that generates composites of current and remote places for telecommunication
purposes. It uses a 3D projector and head tracking to display a person
in a remote place as a life-size stereoscopic image against background
scenery. Since it generates displayed images that correspond to the
observer's viewing position, it reproduces well the fidelity of existence
and the feel of materials. We also describe a simple, fast, and high
quality background scenery generation method, the development of which
was inspired by the visual effects of depth-fused 3D (DFD) displays,
and applied to a single direction conceptual demonstration system.
Our system is a promising means for achieving real-time communication
between two different places in cases where a sense of reality is
required.
