1. A method for conversion using a processor of a series of two dimensional images into a series of three dimensional images comprising:

  • (a) said processor receiving said two dimensional images all of which are from a same viewpoint and processing said two dimensional images in a manner that provides a standard first video output at a connector that is suitable to be displayed on a display by way of a detachable cable that is suitable to be connected to said connector where each of said series of two dimensional images are from said same viewpoint;

    (b) said processor receiving said processed two dimensional images all of which are from said same viewpoint as said standard first video from said connector that were to be displayed on said display;

    (c) said processor processing said received and processed two dimensional images all of which are from said same viewpoint to determine a depth map associated with said processed two dimensional images where each of said series of two dimensional images are from said same viewpoint;

    (d) processing said depth map to render said two dimensional images on said display all of which are from said same viewpoint as said three dimensional images;

    (e) rendering said processed depth map, and said two dimensional images on said display all of which are from said same viewpoint on a display as said three dimensional images.
