The research group Realistic 3D is developing future 3D visualization for entertainment and industry. Focussing on improving capture, compression and presentation technology by making use of sophisticated signal and image processing.
A true experience
Realistic 3D is a natural extension in the strive for an authentic presence. It presents a scene with a realistic depth and a motion parallax without user-worn spectacles. Applications can be found in the fields of digital signage, medical diagnostics, product design and construction, gaming, 3D-TV, telepresence and mobile telephony.
Research Focus
We pursue research, and related education, in the fields of multimedia communication systems that utilize realistic 3D as part. Our main research areas are:
- Synthesis and capture of 3D images and video
- Modelling of 3D devices
- Coding of 3D images and video
- 3D Quality metrics
Current Projects
