Shadow casting for soft and engaging immersion in augmented virtuality artworks
Christian Jacquemin, Bertrand Planes, Rami Ajaj · 2007
Two immersive art installations that involve virtual shadows for better engagement of the viewers are presented. One installation is a stereo film enhanced with a 3D reconstructed mesh for shadow projection, and the other one is a virtual 3D model with texture compositing and transparency. The hardware and software components are chosen for an economical but efficient rendering with standard computer and video equipments.
