Abstract :
This paper describes a novel telepresence system that uses high-resolution movies and a reactive display system with a treadmill. In this system, users can walk through a virtualized environment by actually walking on a treadmill. According to walking motion which is detected by using 3-D position sensors put on both legs, the virtualized environment captured by an omnidirectional multi-camera system is projected on a multi-screen display.
