Configuring stereo cameras

摘要

A computer-implemented method for configuring stereo cameras includes detecting, in a computer system, a relocation of a manipulator in a virtual set. The manipulator defined in the computer system to specify an aspect of the virtual set. The method includes receiving an input in the computer system, the input specifying an aspect of a projection environment. The method includes configuring, using the relocation and the input, first and second cameras to capture a stereo view of a scene such that the stereo view is compatible for being projected in the projection environment.

1. A computer-implemented method for configuring a stereoscopic camera rig having left and right cameras to capture a stereoscopic view of a scene, the method comprising:
displaying a three-dimensional view of a virtual set on a display, the three-dimensional view including visual feedback related to aspects of a stereoscopic view of the scene including at least one of a convergence plane and an infinity distance plane; receiving an input in a computer system, the input specifying an aspect of a projection environment in which the stereoscopic view is to be displayed; detecting, in the computer system, a relocation of a manipulator in the virtual set that allows a user to selectively relocate at least one of the convergence plane or the infinity distance plane; and after at least one of the convergence plane or the infinity distance plane is relocated: (i) determining a convergence distance between the stereoscopic camera rig and the convergence plane and an infinity distance between the stereoscopic camera rig and the infinity distance plane, (ii) determining an interaxial distance between the left and right cameras of the stereoscopic rig using the input, the convergence distance and the infinity distance, and (iii) configuring the left and right cameras to capture a stereo view of a scene using the interaxial distance.
