GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction (2018)
Journal Article
Koniaris, B., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2018). GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction. Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, 1(1), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1145/3203193

Pre-calculated depth information is essential for efficient light field video rendering, due to the prohibitive cost of depth estimation from color when real-time performance is desired. Standard state-of-the-art video codecs fail to satisfy such per... Read More about GPU-accelerated depth codec for real-time, high-quality light field reconstruction.

From Faces to Outdoor Light Probes (2018)
Journal Article
Calian, D. A., Lalonde, J.-F., Gotardo, P., Simon, T., Matthews, I., & Mitchell, K. (2018). From Faces to Outdoor Light Probes. Computer Graphics Forum, 37(2), 51-61. https://doi.org/10.1111/cgf.13341

Image‐based lighting has allowed the creation of photo‐realistic computer‐generated content. However, it requires the accurate capture of the illumination conditions, a task neither easy nor intuitive, especially to the average digital photography en...

Empowerment and embodiment for collaborative mixed reality systems: Empowerment and Embodiment (2018)
Journal Article
Pan, Y., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2018). Empowerment and embodiment for collaborative mixed reality systems: Empowerment and Embodiment. Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds, 29(3-4), https://doi.org/10.1002/cav.1838

We present several mixed‐reality‐based remote collaboration settings by using consumer head‐mounted displays. We investigated how two people are able to work together in these settings. We found that the person in the AR system will be regarded as th... Read More about Empowerment and embodiment for collaborative mixed reality systems: Empowerment and Embodiment.

Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction (2018)
Journal Article
Koniaris, C., Kosek, M., Sinclair, D., & Mitchell, K. (2019). Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction. IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 25(4), 1666-1680. https://doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2018.2818156

We propose an end-to-end solution for presenting movie quality animated graphics to the user while still allowing the sense of presence afforded by free viewpoint head motion. By transforming offline rendered movie content into a novel immersive repr... Read More about Compressed Animated Light Fields with Real-time View-dependent Reconstruction.
