Abstract
Computer-generated holograms (CGHs) using multiview images (MVIs) are holograms
generated with multiple ordinary cameras. This process typically requires a huge
number of cameras arranged at high density. In this paper, we propose a method
to improve CGH using MVIs that obtains the MVIs by using voxel models rather
than cameras. In the proposed method the voxel model is generated using the
shape-from-silhouette (SFS)
technique. We perform SFS using a small number of cameras arranged
sparsely to create voxel models of
objects and then generate the required number of images from these models by
volume rendering. This enables us to generate CGHs using MVIs with just a small
number of sparsely arranged
cameras. Moreover, the proposed method arrange CGHs using MVIs at arbitrary
positions.
