  2. Motivation Real-time acquisition and rendering of dynamic scenes

  3. Previous Work • Virtualized Reality (Rander’97, Kanade’97, Narayanan’98) • Visual Hull (Laurentini’94) • Volume Carving (Potmesil’87, Szeliski’93, Seitz’97) • CSG Rendering (Goldfeather’86, Rappoport’97) • Image-Based Rendering (McMillan’95, Debevec’96, Debevec’98)

  4. Contributions • View-dependent image-based visual hull representation • Efficient algorithm for rendering the visual hull • Efficient algorithm computing visibility • A real-time system

  5. What is a Visual Hull?

  6. background + foreground background foreground - = Why use a Visual Hull? • Can be computed robustly • Can be computed efficiently
