Creating exact 3D moving images as ghost-like replicas of 3D objects has been an ultimate goal in video science. Capturing 3D scenery, processing the captured data for transmission, and displaying the result for 3D viewing are the main functional components. These components encompass a wide range of disciplines: imaging and computer graphics, signal processing, telecommunications, electronics, optics and physics.
The objective of the 3DTV-CON is to bring together researchers and developers from academia and industry with diverse experience and activity in distinct, yet complementary, areas so that full scale 3D video capabilities are seamlessly integrated.

3DTV CON is organized by the EU IST 3DTV Network of Excellence and the Informatics and Telematics Institute of Greece (ITI-CERTH). The event is technically sponsored by IEEE, EURASIP and MPEG-IF.

Conference proceedings will be published online by the IEEE Xplore.
