A Multi-Person Selfie System via Augmented Reality

Abstract

The limited length of a selfie stick always poses the problem of distortion in a selfie, in spite of the prevalence of selfie stick in recent years.We propose a technique, based on modifying existing augmented reality technology, to support the selfie of multiple persons, through properly aligning different photographing processes. It can be shown that our technique helps avoiding the common distortion drawback of using a selfie stick, and facilitates the composition process of a group photo. It can also be used to create some special effects, including creating an illusion of having multiple appearances of a person.
