Depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction (2019)
Patent
Mitchell, K., Koniaris, C., Kosek, M., & Sinclair, D. Depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction. US20190313080A1

Systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are disclosed that enable the compression of depth data and real-time reconstruction of high-quality light fields. In one aspect, spatial compression and decompression of depth images is divided into the... Read More about Depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction.

Intermediated Reality: A Framework for Communication Through Tele-Puppetry (2019)
Journal Article
Casas, L., & Mitchell, K. (2019). Intermediated Reality: A Framework for Communication Through Tele-Puppetry. Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 6, https://doi.org/10.3389/frobt.2019.00060

We introduce Intermediated Reality (IR), a framework for intermediated communication enabling collaboration through remote possession of entities (e.g., toys) that come to life in mobile Mediated Reality (MR). As part of a two-way conversation, each... Read More about Intermediated Reality: A Framework for Communication Through Tele-Puppetry.

Enhanced Shadow Retargeting with Light-Source Estimation Using Flat Fresnel Lenses (2019)
Journal Article
Casas, L., Fauconneau, M., Kosek, M., Mclister, K., & Mitchell, K. (2019). Enhanced Shadow Retargeting with Light-Source Estimation Using Flat Fresnel Lenses. Computers, 8(2), Article 29. https://doi.org/10.3390/computers8020029

Shadow-retargeting maps depict the appearance of real shadows to virtual shadows given corresponding deformation of scene geometry, such that appearance is seamlessly maintained. By performing virtual shadow reconstruction from unoccluded real-shadow... Read More about Enhanced Shadow Retargeting with Light-Source Estimation Using Flat Fresnel Lenses.
