Patent Images
1. A three-dimensional (3D) image generating system for a multi-view image, the system comprising:
- stereo color cameras to capture stereo color images for a 3D image;
stereo depth cameras to capture depth images of areas same as areas photographed by the stereo color cameras;
a mapping unit to map the captured depth images with respective corresponding color images, of the captured color images; and
a depth merging unit to generate corrected depth maps respectively corresponding to the captured color images, based on both disparity information associated with a disparity between the captured color images and primary depth maps respectively generated by the mapping of the mapping unit from the captured depth images.

Abstract
Provided is a three-dimensional (3D) image generating system and method accommodating multi-view imaging. The 3D image generating system and method may generate corrected depth maps respectively corresponding to color images by merging disparity information associated with a disparity between color images and depth maps generated respectively from depth images.
