Abstract:
In this report we describe and demonstrate our technology for creating and browsing super high resolution (SHR) & 3D digital content for a variety of applications including museum artifacts and galleries, archeology, anthropology, art design and heritage conservation. SHR 3D images and associated wireframes require large bandwidth to be transmitted in full detail. To address limitations resulting from limited bandwidth, two operations are performed: (i) bandwidth is optimally monitored using a statistical model and (ii) the quality of the 3D objects transmitted are adjusted to best fit the measured bandwidth. Regions of interest (ROIs) specified by users are stored in multiple levels of detail hierarchy. Our approach extends past systems [Martinez et al. 2000] for 2D image browsing, and supports quality of service (QoS) [Vogel et al. 1995] based retrieval. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
