Abstract
Recently image-based rendering techniques have received much attention as a powerful method to build up 3D world for virtual reality systems. The paper describes one of the new techniques which allow a user to metamorphose a digital image into other image. The approach gives the high level control of the visual effect by proving natural feature-based on specification and interaction of image. The new method was extended to design the motion images applying for movie/cartoon and traditional filmmaking techniques. We are exploring the three-step interpolation algorithm view morphing which allows interpolating between two images of an object taken from two different viewpoints. The proposed method uses correspondence points of the images and epipolar geometry to interpolate camera positions instead of interpolating shape and color in the other papers. Besides, view morphing combined with several methods of image enhancement to pre-process two input images to bring about better quality of output image. The results of consumed energy are also performed with this algorithm before applying on wireless sensor networks (WSNs).
