Many vision and graphics problems such as relighting, structured light scanning and photometric stereo, need images of a scene under a number of different illumination conditions. It is typically assumed that the scene is static. To extend such methods to dynamic scenes, dense optical flow can be used to register adjacent frames. This registration becomes inaccurate if the frame rate is too low with respect to the degree of movement in the scenes. We present a general method that extends time multiplexing with color multiplexing in order to better handle dynamic scenes. Our method allows for packing more illumination information into a single frame, thereby reducing the number of required frames over which optical flow must be computed. Moreover, color-multiplexed frames lend themselves better to reliably computing optical flow. We show that our method produces better results compared to time-multiplexing alone. We demonstrate its application to relighting, structured light scanning and photometric stereo in dynamic scenes.
