SD&A Keynote Session 1 Session Chair: Nicolas S. Holliman, The Univ. of York (United Kingdom) Mon. 9:20 am to 10:20 pm A Stereoscope for the PlayStation Generation   [9391-50] Ian Bickerstaff, Sony Computer Entertainment (United Kingdom) Abstract: After many years of waiting, virtual reality will soon be available for home use. Smart phones have given us small, high quality displays and accurate movement tracking while the games industry has given us the necessary real-time graphics power to drive these displays. In addition, advances in technologies such as free-form optics, and binaural audio processing have arrived at just the right time. More than just viewing images on a screen, the aim of ventures such as Sony Computer Entertainment's Project Morpheus is to produce a system that convinces the wearer that they have been transported to another place, and the display system is a vital component. Ever since the beginning of photography, equipment has been created to achieve this goal: an 1850's Brewster stereoscope contains many design features found in the latest HMDs. In both, near ortho-stereoscopic viewing conditions ensure that subjects appear life sized and with realistic depth placement. Unlike a monitor or cinema screen, images are always seen from an optimum viewing position with keystone distortion and vertical parallax kept to a minimum. A far greater range of depth can be viewed comfortably on a head-mounted display than is possible on a conventional screen. Unlike Victorian stereoscopes, the latest devices offer a wide field of view using techniques first pioneered by Eric Howlett with his Leep VR system in the early 1980s. Screen edges are pushed into peripheral vision so that the concept of a stereo window is no longer relevant. Pincushion distortion is used to increase visual acuity in the centre of vision, mimicking the characteristics of the human eye. To complete the illusion, high frequency data from accelerometers and gyros are fused with lower frequency camera data to provide accurate, low latency tracking of the viewer's head position and orientation. Ingenious new techniques create the illusion of zero latency, drastically reducing the potential for any viewer disorientation. So how do we create images for these displays? From a software point of view, the main challenge is to achieve guaranteed high frame rates while avoiding pixel aliasing. Using stereography to manage 3D settings is not required though. In fact any unexpected departure from ortho-stereoscopic viewing could lead to viewer disorientation. One challenge relevant to this conference is how to photograph and display real-world subjects in a virtual reality system. Even basic 360-degree photography is difficult enough without capturing in the three dimensions necessary for these displays. Multi-camera rigs generate image stitching errors across the joins caused by the very parallax necessary for binocular depth cues. An even more fundamental problem is how these images should be encoded. How can the parallax baked into an image be correct for every viewing direction? It is surprising how despite the maturity of conventional 3D photography, capturing 360 degree 3D images is still in its infancy. Virtual reality technology is developing faster now than ever before but the more we discover, the more we realise how little we actually know. This presents an enormous opportunity for everyone to define the knowledge that will be so important in the future.     Author Biography: Ian Bickerstaff is the technical director of Sony Computer Entertainment's Immersive Technology Group and is a founder member of their move into virtual reality, Project Morpheus. His background is in stereoscopic 3D and visual simulation. For 15 years, he worked in the aerospace industry, developing immersive displays for military flight simulators. He also played a major part in developing the world's first Formula 1 driving simulator for a top motor racing team. At Sony, after developing virtual camera systems for a major driving game, he helped to introduce stereoscopic functionality to the PlayStation 3 platform. He is now producing technology to bring virtual reality to the living room.

EI Plenary Session and Society Award Presentations Tues. 8:30 to 9:50 am "Analyzing Social Interactions through Behavioral Imaging" [9391-500] James M. Rehg, Georgia Institute of Technology (United States) Abstract: Beginning in infancy, individuals acquire the social and communication skills that are vital for a healthy and productive life. Children with developmental delays face great challenges in acquiring these skills, resulting in substantial lifetime risks. Children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) represent a particularly significant risk category, due both to the increasing rate of diagnosis of ASD and its consequences. Since the genetic basis for ASD is unclear, the diagnosis, treatment, and study of the disorder depends fundamentally on the observation of behavior. In this talk, I will describe our research agenda in Behavioral Imaging, which targets the capture, modeling, and analysis of social and communicative behaviors between children and their caregivers and peers. We are developing computational methods and statistical models for the analysis of vision, audio, and wearable sensor data. Our goal is to develop a new set of capabilities for the large-scale collection and interpretation of behavioral data. I will describe several research challenges in multi-modal sensor fusion and statistical modeling which arise in this area, and present illustrative results from the analysis of social interactions with children and adults. more...

SD&A Keynote Presentation II Session Chair: Nicolas S. Holliman, The Univ. of York (United Kingdom) Tues. 11:30 am - 12:30 pm What is stereoscopic vision good for?   [9391-49] Jenny C. A. Read, Newcastle Univ. (United Kingdom) Abstract: Stereoscopic vision has been described as "one of the glories of nature". Humans can detect disparities between the two eyes' images which are less than the diameter of one photoreceptor. But when we close one eye, the most obvious change is the loss of peripheral vision rather than any alteration in perceived depth. Many people are stereoblind without even realising the fact. So what is stereoscopic vision actually good for? In this wide-ranging keynote address, I will consider some possible answers, discussing some of the uses stereo vision may have in three different domains: in evolution, in art and in medicine. Stereo vision incurs significant costs, e.g. the duplication of resources to cover a region of the visual field twice, and the neuronal tissue needed to extract disparities. Nevertheless, it has evolved in many animals including monkeys, owls, horses, sheep, toads and insects. It must therefore convey significant fitness benefits. It is often assumed that the main benefit is improved accuracy of depth judgments, but camouflage breaking may be as important, particularly in predatory animals. I will discuss my lab's attempts to gain insight into these questions by studying stereo vision in an insect system, the praying mantis. In humans, for the last 150 years, stereo vision has been turned to a new use: helping us reproduce visual reality for artistic purposes. By recreating the different views of a scene seen by the two eyes, stereo achieves unprecedented levels of realism. However, it also has some unexpected effects on viewer experience. For example, by reducing the salience of the picture surface, it can affect our ability to correct for factors such as oblique viewing. The disruption of established mechanisms for interpreting pictures may be one reason why some viewers find stereoscopic content disturbing. Stereo vision also has uses in ophthalmology. The sub-photoreceptor level of stereoacuity referred to in my opening paragraph requires the entire visual system to be functioning optimally: the optics and retina of both eyes, the brain areas which control eye movements, the muscles which move the eyes, and the brain areas which extract disparity. Thus, assessing stereoscopic vision provides an immediate, non-invasive assessment of binocular visual function. Clinical stereoacuity tests are used in the management of conditions such as strabismus and amblyopia as well as vision screening. Stereoacuity can reveal the effectiveness of therapy and even predict long-term outcomes post surgery. Yet current clinical stereo tests fall far short of the accuracy and precision achievable in the lab. At Newcastle we are exploiting the recent availability of autostereo 3D tablet computers to design a clinical stereotest app in the form of a game suitable for young children. Our goal is to enable quick, accurate and precise stereoacuity measures which will enable clinicians to obtain better outcomes for children with visual disorders.     Author Biography: Jenny Read leads a multidisciplinary team researching many aspects of vision, especially 3D or stereoscopic vision. Her research interests include how vision may be altered in clinical conditions like strabismus or epilepsy, how viewers perceive depth in 3D displays, and how 3D vision works in insects. Read's scientific career began with a doctorate in theoretical astrophysics at Oxford University before moving into visual neuroscience. After four years in the USA working at the National Institutes of Health, in 2005 she returned to the UK with a research fellowship from the Royal Society, Britain's national academy of science. She is now a Reader (Associate Professor) in Vision Science at Newcastle University's Institute of Neuroscience in the beautiful North East of England.

EI Plenary Session and EI Conference Award Presentations Wed. 8:30 to 9:50 am What Makes Big Visual Data Hard? by Alexei (Alyosha) Efros, Univ. of California, Berkeley (United States) [9391-501] Abstract: There are an estimated 3.5 trillion photographs in the world, of which 10% have been taken in the past 12 months. Facebook alone reports 6 billion photo uploads per month. Every minute, 72 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube. Cisco estimates that in the next few years, visual data (photos and video) will account for over 85% of total internet traffic. Yet, we currently lack effective computational methods for making sense of all this mass of visual data. Unlike easily indexed content, such as text, visual content is not routinely searched or mined; it's not even hyperlinked. Visual data is Internet's "digital dark matter" [Perona,2010] -- it's just sitting there! In this talk, I will first discuss some of the unique challenges that make Big Visual Data difficult compared to other types of content. In particular, I will argue that the central problem is the lack a good measure of similarity for visual data. I will then present some of our recent work that aims to address this challenge in the context of visual matching, image retrieval, visual data mining, and interactive visual data exploration. more...

SD&A Discussion Forum Wed. 11:30 am - 12:30 pm VR and 3D: Is good 3D necessary for good VR? Stereoscopic 3D is now a well established tool for film making in cinema and television. The stereography of good 3D has been an important part of this process, enabling the best content to produce both compelling and entertaining depth sensations. We know that this success has come from an understanding of what is good in human terms, in display terms and in content terms. Our panel of distinguished researchers in the fields of 3D and VR will discuss the role good 3D has in the VR experience. In particular is good stereoscopic 3D necessary for VR to be immersive and compelling.
