Non-Model Based Virtual Reality and Visualization Using Computer Vision
Jun 26, 2009
IEEE Computational Intelligence Chapter (Hong Kong) successfully hosted a seminar on 26th June 2009. The topic was ' Non-Model Based Virtual Reality and Visualization Using Computer Vision' given by Prof. Jesse Jin, from The University of Newcastle, Australia.
Abstract:
Traditional computer generated virtual reality is model based one, ie, it is heavily relied on building 3D model of the scene. There are two major problems: the first one is building 3D models is very time consuming and resources greedy; the second one is that it would not give real scene, no matter how close it could be. This seminar introduces a new approach of 3D virtual reality by using computer vision techniques. It also introduces the work in augmented reality.
