Image Processing Siggraph

Virtual Mirror for Shoe Customization

We present a system for the visualization of customized consumer articles. Instead of viewing yourself in a real mirror, highly sophisticated 3D image processing techniques are used to verify the appearance of new models.
A camera captures the moving person in front of our Virtual Mirror an outputs the mirrored images onto a large display which replaces a real mirror. Any additional equipment is not needed.
The 3D motion is tracked in real-time and computer graphics models of the consumer articles are augmented into the video such that the person seems to wear the virtual objects.

3D Content Creation

The rollout of 3D Cinema and first 3D-ready TV sets implicate the next important step to unified content creation technologies which cover the complete range from cinema to mobile devices. Different 3D Display technologies need significantly different input formats. Latest research results provide a set of tools covering the complete chain from synchronized capturing over disparity and depth estimation up to intermediate view generation and interactive 3D rendering.
