Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for a holopresence conferencing system using off-the-shelf videoconferencing systems. The holopresence conferencing system uses one high-definition stereoscopic camera per remote participant and discards all but a center portion of the right image and a center portion of the left image generated by the camera. The system concatenates the center portion of the right and the left image into a composite image and transmits the composite image via an off-the-shelf videoconferencing system. At the viewing location, the composite image is divided in half, recovering the right center portion and the left center portion. The right center portion and left center portion may be placed on a background and stereoscopically projected in high-definition on a semi-circular life-size screen. Viewing participants may wear glasses that allow the viewer to see the remote participant in three-dimensions.
