Title:
LIGHT FIELD IMAGE RENDERING METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREATING SEE-THROUGH EFFECTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/096310
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A light field image processing method is disclosed for removing occluding foreground and blurring uninterested objects, by differentiating objects located at different depths of field and objects belonging to distinct categories, to create see-through effects. The image processing method may blur a background object behind a specified object of interest. The image processing method may also at least partially remove from the rendered image any occluding object that may prevent a viewer from viewing the object of interest. The image processing method may further blur areas of the rendered image that represent an object in the light field other than the object of interest. The method includes steps of constructing a light field weight function comprising a depth component and a semantic component, where the weight function assigns a ray in the light field with a weight; and conducting light field rendering using the weight function.
