Recently, learning methods have been designed to create Multiplane Images (MPIs) for view synthesis. While MPIs are extremely powerful and facilitate high quality renderings, a great amount of memory is required, making them impractical for many applications. In this paper, we propose a learning method that optimizes the available memory...
We describe a multi-user system enabling instant messaging in Augmented Reality. A user can get in contact with another one without requiring his/her identification number and can easily localize the person initiating the contact. It is also possible to exchange various types of personal information in a private manner. This...
We introduce a system to assign navigation tasks to a self-moving robot using an Augmented Reality (AR) application running on a smartphone. The system relies on a robot controller and a central server hosted on a PC. The user points at a target location in the phone camera view and...
In visual effects it is usually required to process multiple film plates in order to reproduce the performance of real actors using a digital 3D character. One of the most challenging aspects of this process is the complexity of facial animation. Motivated by the work required to capture and digitally...
The upcoming MPEG Immersive Video (MIV) standard will enable storage and distribution of immersive video content over existing and future networks, for playback with 6 full or partial degrees of freedom of view position and orientation. The demo showcases a VOD server streaming MIV encoded immersive video contents up to...
Which parts or objects are interesting in a content? In this paper we first propose three computational models to automatically predict interestingness rankings of areas/objects inside a 2D picture. We based our modeling on previous experimental findings to ensure reliability of the prediction when compared to the human assessement of...
