Overview

The UCSD Vision and Graphics Labs and MERL acquired several 3D (horizontal parallax) light fields used in three recent papers: an ICCV 2007 paper on Synthetic Aperture Tracking [1], a SIGGRAPH 2006 paper on Natural Video Matting using Camera Arrays [2], and an EGSR 2006 paper on Antialiasing for Automultiscopic Displays [3]. We are now making this data publicly available for academic and research purposes. These datasets should not be used for commercial purposes without explicit permission, nor should they appear in a product for sale without our permission. If you use this data in a publication, please acknowledge the UCSD Vision and Graphics Laboratories and Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratory, and please cite the appropriate paper as indicated for each dataset.

Data Format

Each light field is available as a zipped archive of images in PNG format. We provide images that are rectified and color and radiometrically corrected.

Acquisition

These light fields were acquired using an eight-camera array and a linear translating gantry. Both setups are 1D (horizontal) thus the light fields are 3D (horizontal parallax only).
