We present an image-based rendering technique that is based on the
trilinear tensor.
Novel views of a
3D scene are generated directly from a pair of reference
images, without recovering
3D structure as an intermediate step. The position of the novel view
is governed by the trilinear
tensor
and we move the novel camera in space by manipulating the trilinear
tensor with tensor operators.
The algorithm consists
of two stages. A pre-processing stage done only once, and an online stage
done
for every new position of the virtual camera.
Experiments show that
photo-realistic images of up to 60 degrees from the reference images can
be achieved.
