The first PROLIGHT Workshop on Modern Signal Processing Methods for Ultra-realistic 3D Displays is organized jointly by the PROLIGHT-IAPP Marie Curie Action and the 3D-ConTourNet COST Action.
Workshop chairs
Atanas Gotchev and Jaakko Astola, Tampere University of Technology, Finland
Workshop synopsis
The ultimate aim of visual media technologies is to achieve higher realism of the reproduced visual scenes in order to involve the user in the story being told or to help him/her to accomplish some task in a more productive way. Ultra-realistic 3D displays are expected to recreate an exact optical replica of the visual scene, therefore they constantly require capture and processing of vast amount of multi-modal data. Such data is available only for computer-generated scenes, while the creation and manipulation of real-life scenes is still problematic. In order to fill the gap between creation and manipulation of rich visual content and its highly-realistic visualization, there is a need to understand the complexity of the data and how it is constrained by the available capture equipment and the target display.
The PROLIGHT workshop addresses the problems of capture, analysis, modelling, compression and visualization of light fields of real-world scenes. It gathers together researchers aiming at advancing the theory of light-field modelling and its practical application on next-generation 3D displays. The workshop is a venue for presenting novel methods and techniques based on modern signal processing theory made operational for modern 3D displays.
