Abstract:
Todays most compelling virtual reality experiences
shift the users viewpoint within the virtual environment based on input
from a head-tracking system, giving a compelling sense of motion
parallax. While this is straightforward for computer generated
scenes, photographic VR content generally does not provide motion
parallax in response to head motion. Even 360 stereo panoramas,
which offer separated left and right views, fail to allow the vantage
point to change in response to head motion.
