    On-set depth capturing for VFX productions using time of flight

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    Pixel accurate depth estimation of a dynamic scene, in addition to conventional recording on a film set, opens up new opportunities in modern filmmaking. Depth maps can be used for Keying, Set Reconstruction as well as for subsequent Depth Grading in Post Production [1].
