Abstract
In this chapter, we present a self-reconfigurable camera array system, which captures video sequences from an array of mobile cameras, renders novel views on the fly, and reconfigures the camera positions to achieve better rendering quality. Through this chapter, we hope to demonstrate to the reader what are the essential components of a light field/image-based rendering system, and how to assemble them together as a working system. In addition, the system serves as an example of the active rearranged sampling approach, since the cameras in our system are mounted on mobile platforms, and they can move around in order to achieve better rendering results given the virtual viewing positions.
