Abstract

See full text

An image-based rendering system and method is disclosed for displaying 3D images of a subject (e.g. an object or scene). A compressed image file having multiple corrected and calibrated images of a subject from various viewpoints from along a trajectory about the subject is generated. Prior to selected viewpoints of the object being displayed, the compressed image file is at least partially transcoded to a randomly accessible format such that individual or multiple images may be extracted for immediate display or further processing. One or more final extracted images are optionally used in interpolation, morphing, or stitching algorithms before display to a viewer.
