The FreeCam sensing hardware consists of a small number of static color video cameras and state-of-the-art Kinect depth sensors, and the FreeCam software uses a number of advanced GPU processing and rendering techniques to seamlessly merge the input streams, providing a pleasant user experience. A system such as FreeCam is critical for applications such as telepresence, 3D video-conferencing and interactive 3D TV. FreeCam may also be used to produce multi-view video, which is critical to drive newgeneration autostereoscopic lenticular 3D displays.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.3 [Computer Graphics]: Picture/Image Generation-Line and curve generationFreeCam: A Hybrid Camera System for Interactive Free-Viewpoint Video
