In this paper, we present a multi-view camera-array system by using commercial DSLR cameras. In order to produce quality autostereoscopic prints, we initially calibrated the color based on X-Rite color-checker, then automatically adjust the alignment of all images by one black-white checker. In this system, we also utilized an external electronic trigger based on Arduino for synchronizing all cameras to generate bullet-time effect photos. Finally, we converted all photos into multiplexed images then printed them on a lenticular lens panel to be an autostereoscopic photo frame.
We discuss the design and operation of an Epipolar-Plane Imaging light-field camera array and embedded-computation system designed for panoramic operation. Built from a planar configured EPI module, this is a hybrid capable of imaging in 360° x 3D. We discuss the geometry and constraints of EPI imaging, its connection with the design and structuring of the acquisition array, and the architecture of the EPIModule forming the basis for our panoramic capture. Finally, we show an arrangement of modules on a geodesic – the Truncated Icosahedron of football/soccer – which happens to suit the optical and mechanical properties of the first EPIModule we have built. Results are preliminary; more will be presented for the conference publication.
