Abstract:
An “infinity mirror” is an optical novelty that uses facing mirrors to create the appearance of a tunnel of copies of a scene receding into the distance. This poster shows how to use view-dependent appearance to make all copies of the scene appear non-reflected, allowing for “speed tunnel” effects.
