Integrated Three-Dimensional Television – Capture, Transmission and Display

Creating exact 3D moving images as ghost-like replicas of 3D objectshas been an ultimate goal in video science. Capturing 3D Scenery, processing the captured data for transmission and displaying the result for 3D viewing are the main functional components. These components encompass a wide range of disciplines: imaging and computer graphics, signal processing, telecommunications, electronics, optics and physics are needed.

The primary objective is to align European reseachers with diverse expirience and activity in distinct, yet complementarry areas, so that an effective network for achieving full scale 3D video capabilities integrated seemlessly to a more general information technology base (like internet), is established and kept functional for a long time.
