Title
Manipulation of Material Perception with Light-Field Projection
Abstract
Reflected illumination from the object surface provides various information about material perception. When the precisely designed illumination projected on the object surface, it changes object appearance such as apparent texture and color, and it breaks our material perception. In this talk, I present several works of perceptual material appearance manipulation using projector-camera systems.
The illumination projection based on psychophysics enables manipulation of the object’s materiality not only apparent color. We implemented psychophysics based image processing to our co-axial projector-camera system and allowed successive appearance manipulation of translucency and glossiness.
The overlay projection onto the non-Lambert reflection surface such as specular reflection with multiple light sources shows different appearances for each viewing direction. In our latest work, we proposed the viewpoint-dependent appearance manipulation using light-field projection on the anisotropic reflection surface for advanced material perception manipulation.
I believe the material perception manipulation is an innovative display technique and beneficial for advertisement, entertainment, visual assistance, and other applications.
