Interactive video cubism

ABSTRACT

This paper presents an interactive video visualization system. In this visualization video data is considered to be a block of three dimensional data where frames of video data comprise the third dimension. The user can manipulate and see a cut plane through the video data. The visualization leads to images that are aesthetically interesting as well as being useful for image analysis
