Abstract :
In this paper we describe an image-based rendering pipeline for interactive real-time Free Viewpoint Television (FTV) on embedded systems. Description of the processing steps and optimizations implemented targeting the hardware acceleration of a commercial programmable Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is given. As a result, real-time view synthesis at 70 fps in XGA resolution has bee achieved. Restrictions and modifications introduced to support the application on OpenGL ES 2.0 based GPUs for embedded systems have also been discussed.
