  Armand Fellous directs the 3D Laboratory at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel and is technical director of the EU283 project. He was previously lecturer in mathematics at the Université Rene Descartes. His earlier research focussed on the theory of fractals and stochastic processes in general. He holds a Doctorate in Mathematics.
  
  

• Abstract :

  In the framework of the Eureka EU283 program, the 3D Laboratory at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel has developed a set of technical devices and programs to ensure virtual camera control by a real camera. In this manner, elements derived from real footage can be coherently mixed with other elements generated by 3D synthesis.
  The same set of material and software means makes it possible to film real actors in computer-generated settings, or virtual actors in real settings, or any conceivable combination of these two situations.

  The initial aim of the EU283 program, which likewise calls on TDI (France), Videotime (Italy), and Telson (Spain), was to exploit computer generated settings for fiction. Nevertheless, the extraordinary interest of the system for simulation in the fields of architecture, civil engineering and industrial design soon became apparent. The presentation will describe the various questions encountered during development of this system, and will present a few of its applications.
