We propose an implementation of a model-based free-viewpoint TV (FTV) system using only three uncalibrated cameras. FTV is next-generation media that enables us to see a scene from any viewpoint. A modelbased approach for realizing FTV requires real-time 3D object capture using multiple cameras. Here, we propose a system for reconstructing 3D object surfaces using the so-called 2D continuous dynamic programming (2DCDP) method with factorization. 2DCDP is a powerful technique for full-pixel optimal matching. It provides pixel correspondences between the images captured by the three cameras. The proposed system works well as a promising FTV system. 1
