Abstract

We have developed an augmented telepresence system which enables virtual tourism beyond time and space. Augmented telepresence provides a user with both the view of a remote location and related information using augmented reality techniques. This study deals with the geometric and photometric registration problems to generate movie-quality augmented omnidirectional videos automatically. The user can look around the scene from the sky above Heijo palace Site which is an ancient capital in Nara, Japan in the technical demonstration.
