Patent Images
1. A method of converting 2-D images to 3-D images, said method comprising:
- rendering a point cloud according to a camera model;
obtaining a boolean image from said point cloud;
identifying a plurality of segmentation layers within said boolean image, each said layer having static and dynamic features;
assigning weighted values to said static and dynamic features such that static features receive a higher weight value than do dynamic features; and
calculating a scene geometry by iterating said segmentation layers.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for controlling 2-D to 3-D image conversion. The system and method includes receiving an image and masking the objects in the image using segmentation layers Each segmentation layer can have weighted values for static and dynamic features. Iterations are used to form the final image which, if desired, can be formed using less than all of the segmentation layers. A final iteration can be run with the weighted values equal for static and dynamic features.
