PANORAMIC IMMERSIVE VIDEOS - 3D Production and Visualization Framework

Abstract

Panoramic immersive video is a new technology, which allows the user to interact with a video beyond simple production line, because it enables the possibility to navigate in the scene from different points of view. Although many devices for the production of panoramic videos have been proposed, these are still expensive.In this paper a framework for production of virtual panoramic immersive videos using 3D production software is presented. The framework is composed by two stages: panoramic video production and immersive visualization. In the former stage the traditional 3D scene is taken as input and two outputs are generated, the panoramic video and path sounds to immersive audio reproduction. In the latter, a desktop CAVE assembly is proposed in order to provide an immersive display.
