Cylindrical and Conical Mirror Anamorphosis for Image Display

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Anamorphosis is a deformed image that appears in its true shape only from a certain point of view, out of which it is seen distorted and the illusionary effect is lost. In this paper, we describe a simple method for achieving anamorphosis by utilizing image coordinate transformation. The novelty of this work is the creation of the framework for the implementation of cylindrical and conical mirror anamorphosis, resulting in a tool for artists and designers. A qualitative evaluation approach is proposed to carry on comparative study with other methods. Experimental results demonstrate that using the proposed method one may get a good undistorted image in a mirror with much less user-interaction compared to other approaches. In addition to implementing the illusionary effect, some applications of the anamorphosis are also presented.
