So it will look like the future of television? – Polish Radio

In the classic scene from the movie “The Matrix” hero jumps and freezes in flight. The camera circles at that time form, and the viewer can see the scene from different angles – as if watching a sculpture. Experts are working to similar results could be obtained during the transmission of sporting events or theatrical performances.

Researchers from the University of Technology wish that every member of the audience in real time during transmission may itself play in the TV operator and commands for the computer can move the virtual camera. You will now be able to decide whether to watch the event from the left or the right. Will be able to tour the virtual camera watched the scene, as well as make up for the selected point.

In the movie “The Matrix” effect was achieved Fixture doing at the same time images from many cameras placed around the stage. Researchers from the University of Technology are of the opinion that the effect of liquid bypass the camera around the scene (rotation of 120 degrees) can be obtained only by recording event of a dozen cameras arranged in a circle.
developed by scientists will be able to software based on an image obtained from the camera to calculate what you see will be from anywhere between the devices. This allows the viewer will be able to obtain an image of a place where there is no camera, and the transitions between the points where the camera stand will be smooth.
studies Poznan scientists tested for the case of a solution, when the viewing angle can change by up to 120 degrees (third turn). If we otaczałyby camera scene on each side, would have to be seen in the background bursting with action.
But researchers face many problems, including related to various image distortions resulting from failure to determine the location of individual objects. – But I think it’s a matter of 2-3 years, that our technology has been refined and could hit the market – says prof. Marek Domanski from the Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunications, Poznan University of Technology Research
free access television lead not only Poles, but also researchers from Japan and South Korea.
