The paper presents an efficient light field image synthesis method based on single-viewpoint images, which can directly generate high-quality light field images from single-viewpoint input images. The proposed method integrates light field image encoding with the tiled rendering technique of 3DGS. In the construction of the rendering pipeline, a viewpoint constraint strategy is adopted to optimize rendering quality, and a sub-pixel rendering strategy is implemented to improve rendering efficiency. Experimental results demonstrate that 8K light field images with 96 viewpoints can be generated in real time from end to end. The research presented in the paper provides a new approach for the real-time generation of high-resolution light field images, advancing the application of light field display technology in low-cost environments.
