Production Framework for Full Panoramic Scenes with Photorealistic Augmented Reality

Abstract

The novelty of our proposal is the end-to-end solution to combine computer generated elements and captured panoramas. This framework supports productions specially aimed at spherical dis- plays (e.g., fulldomes). Full panoramas are popular in the computer graphics industry. However their common usage on environment lighting and reflection maps are often restrict to conven- tional displays. With a keen eye in what may be the next trend in the filmmaking industry, we address the particularities of those productions, exploring a new representation of the space by storing the depth together with the light map, in a full panoramic light-depth map.
