1. A method comprising:

  • selectively aligning at least two image based rendering (IBR) image data along a specific direction;

    selectively rebinning the aligned IBR image data to form a multi-perspective panorama that includes an arbitrary region of support, wherein the rebinning includes subdividing each of the IBR image data into a plurality of portions and combining a specific portion selected from each IBR image data to form a portion of the multi-perspective panorama;

    determining at least one displacement vector associated with the at least two IBR image data and subdividing at least one of the IBR image data based on the magnitude of the displacement vector; and

    setting the displacement vector for each of the at least two IBR image data to be of different magnitude to support a smart rebinning process for a data volume that includes the arbitrary region of support and an unsupported region of the multi-perspective panorama.
