Image conversion and encoding techniques
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of producing a depth map for use in the conversion of 2D images in a video sequence into stereoscopic images including the steps of:
- identifying and numbering each frame of the video sequence;
identifying at least one object within the video sequence;
allocating an identifying tag to each object;
dividing the video sequence into a plurality of partial sequences;
transmitting the partial sequences to a plurality of operators, each operator determining and defining an outline for each object in the partial sequence previously allocated said identifying tag;
receiving said partial sequences from said plurality of operators;
collating said partial sequences to reform the video sequence; and
allocating a depth tag to each object.
