Abstract

Light fields (LFs) and light field videos (LFVs) capture both angular and spatial variation of light rays emanating from scenes. This richness of information leads to novel applications such as post-capture refocusing, depth estimation and depth-velocity filtering which are not possible with images and videos. These capabilities come, however, with a significant increase in data to be processed. In order to fully exploit opportunities provided by LFs and LFVs, low-complexity signal processing algorithms that process LF and LFV data in real-time are required. In this brief, we survey such state-of-the-art algorithms, in particular for depth filtering, refocusing and denoising of LFs and depth-velcoty filtering for LFVs, and future directions for these real-time LF an LFV processing algorithms.
