Abstract :
We have developed a 3DTV system that captures and shows 3D images that covers 360-degree of viewing zone horizontally. 3D images are captured and reproduced as gathering of dense light rays. This system consists of a cylinder-shaped 3D display that allows viewers to see 3D images from 360-degree, a ray capturing unit, a realtime image correction unit, and data transferring system. The capturing unit acquires multiview images from all horizontal directions around an object with narrow view interval, which the display needs as light ray data. The image correction unit can corrects rotation and distortion that caused by optics of ray capturing unit in real time.
