Parallel processing method for realtime FTV

In this paper, we propose a parallel processing method to generate free viewpoint image in realtime. It is impossible to arrange the cameras in a high density realistically though it is necessary to capture images of the scene from innumerable cameras to express the free viewpoint image. Therefore, it is necessary to interpolate the image of arbitrary viewpoint from limited captured images. However, this process has the relation of the trade-off between the image quality and the computing time. In proposed method, it aimed to generate the high-quality free viewpoint image in realtime by applying the parallel processing to time-consuming interpolation part.
