Abstract

We have developed a new type of television named FTV (Free-viewpoint TV). FTV is an innovative visual media that enables us to view a 3D scene by freely changing our viewpoints. We constructed the world's first real-time FTV system including the complete chain from capturing to display. We have also developed new type of ray capture and display technologies such as a 360-degree mirror-scan ray capturing system and a 360 degree ray-reproducing display. MPEG has been conducting the standardization activities of FTV. The first phase of FTV was Multiview Video Coding and the second phase is 3D Video.
