Intelligent depth control

A system, comprising at least one non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having stored thereon, individually or in combination, instructions that when executed by one or more processors result in the following operations comprising:

• determining a depth setting for use in displaying autostereoscopic video (AV) based on at least one of user parameters or device parameters;
• displaying the AV on a display, the displaying of the AV being based on the depth
• setting;
• capturing an image;
• detecting a face within the captured image;
• determining features from the detected face;
• determining whether a user profile of a particular user corresponding to the features exists, the user profile comprising depth preference information, said depth preference information comprising a user specified amount of depth for displaying said AV:
• wherein when said user profile exists, said user parameters are based on said depth preference information,
• wherein the depth setting is based on device parameters if a user profile corresponding to the features of a particular user is determined not to exist.

A method, comprising:

• determining a depth setting for use in displaying autostereoscopic video (AV) based on at least one of user parameters or device parameters;
• displaying the AV on a display, the displaying of the AV being based on the depth setting;
• capturing an image;
• detecting a face within the captured image;
• determining features from the detected face;
• and
• determining whether a user profile of a particular user corresponding to the features exists, the user profile comprising depth preference information, said depth preference information comprising a user specified amount of depth for displaying said AV:
• wherein when said user profile exists, said user parameters are based on said depth preference information;
• wherein the depth setting is based on device parameters only if a user profile corresponding to the features of a particular user does not exist.
