Abstract
A new visual medium, Virtualized Reality, immerses viewers in a virtua l reconstruction of real-world events. The Virtualized Reality world m odel consists of real images and depth information computed from these images. Stereoscopic reconstructions provide a sense of complete imme rsion, and users can select their own viewpoints at view time, indepen dent of the actual camera positions used to capture the event.
