Abstract: Many video sequences consist of a locally dynamic background containing moving foreground subjects. In this paper we propose a novel way of re-displaying these sequences, by giving the user control over a virtual camera frame. Based on video mosaicing, we first compute a static high quality background panorama. After segmenting and removing the foreground subjects from the original video, the remaining elements are merged into a dynamic background panorama, which seamlessly extends the original video footage. We then re-display this augmented video by warping and cropping the panorama. The virtual camera can have an enlarged field-of-view and a controlled camera motion. Our technique is able to process videos with complex camera motions, reconstructing high quality panoramas without parallax artefacts, visible seams or blurring, while retaining repetitive dynamic elements.
