Abstract
A method for adjusting parallax in three-dimensional stereoscopic image representation is presented, the method including taking a plurality of shots, performing disparity analysis for each of the plurality of shots, assigning a minimum parallax value and a maximum parallax value at a beginning and an end of each shot of the plurality of shots, adjusting a predetermined number of frames of each shot of the plurality of shots to move parallax into comfort zone, and transcoding video to a plurality of screen sizes for distribution.
Claims18
A method for adjusting parallax in three-dimensional stereoscopic image representation, the method comprising:
- capturing a plurality of shots to create a 3D video;
- transmitting the plurality of shots, via a network, to a disparity analysis module;
- performing disparity analysis for each of the plurality of shots;
- assigning a minimum parallax value and a maximum parallax value at a beginning and an end of each shot of the plurality of shots;
- adjusting a predetermined number of frames of each shot of the plurality of shots to move parallax into a comfort zone;
- and
- transcoding the 3D video to a plurality of screen sizes for distribution.
A system for adjusting parallax in three-dimensional stereoscopic image representation, the system comprising:
- a network having one or more communication channels;
- a plurality of image capturing devices for capturing a plurality of shots;
- a disparity analysis module for performing disparity analysis for each of the plurality of shots received via the network;
- a parallax threshold calculator for at least assigning a minimum parallax value and a maximum parallax value at a beginning and an end of each shot of the plurality of shots;
- a stereoscopic image adjuster for adjusting a predetermined number of frames of each shot of the plurality of shots to move parallax into comfort zone;
- and
- a stereoscopic output module for transcoding video to a plurality of screen sizes for distribution.
