The notion of a virtual sensor for optimal 3D reconstruction is introduced. Instead of planar perspective images that collect many rays at a fixed viewpoint, omnivergent cameras c...
The necessary and sufficient conditions for being able to estimate scene structure, motion and camera calibration from a sequence of images are very rarely satisfied in practice. ...

This paper presents an algorithm for shadow calculation in dynamic polyhedral scenes illuminated by point light sources. It is based on a modi cation of Shadow Volume Binary Space...
We study the 3D reconstruction of a binary scene from X-ray tomographic data. In the special case of a compact and uniform object lying in a uniform background, the scene is entir...
