Abstract
A method for transmitting a three-dimensional (3D) image is provided. The 3D image is transmitted via an image transmission interface according to a 2D image data format. The method includes steps of: receiving a 2D image data and an image depth data; down-sampling the 2D image data to generate an image sampling data; and transmitting the 3D image comprising the image sampling data and at least one part of the image depth data via the image transmission interface.
