Real-time dynamic scene modeling and rendering

想象一下，你正坐在客厅里看一场NHL的实况转播。您拥有一个巨大的屏幕和环绕音响系统，这让您感觉就像是在溜冰场边。在某些方面，它可能比在溜冰场边看更好--你可以自由地在去喝一杯时暂停比赛，然后在你回来时恢复比赛，这是可能的，因为较新的电视系统可以在本地存储信号，并在你想要的时候播放它们。然而，难道你不也想拥有控制自己的视点的自由，这样你就可以在你最喜欢的地点观看比赛，甚至在有人得分时冻结动作，从不同的角度重播场景？拟议的研究计划旨在使这一点成为下一代电视系统的现实。

Imagine that you are sitting in your living room watching a live NHL game. You have a giant screen and a surround sound system, which make you feel as if you are rink-side. In some aspects, it may be better than watching rink-side -- you have the freedom to pause the game when you go for a drink and resume when you return, which is possible because newer television systems can locally store the signals and play them when you want. However, don't you also want to have the freedom to control your viewpoint so that you can watch the game from your favorite spot, or even freeze the action when someone scores and replay the scene from different perspectives? The proposed research program aims at making this a reality for the next generation of television systems.
