METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REPRODUCING 3D CONTENT
First Claim
1. A method of displaying an alternative object while reproducing three-dimensional (3D) content, the method comprising:
- reproducing the 3D content;
while reproducing the 3D content, detecting an interrupt signal;
determining a maximum depth value of the 3D content, in response to detecting the interrupt signal;
adjusting a depth value of the 3D content according to the maximum depth value; and
controlling a 3D content reproducing apparatus to display an alternative object corresponding to the interrupt signal,wherein the alternative object overlaps the 3D content of which the depth value is adjusted.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for displaying an alternative object while reproducing three-dimensional (3D) content. The method includes reproducing the 3D content; during the reproducing of the 3D content, detecting an interrupt signal; determining a maximum depth value of the 3D content in response to detecting of the interrupt signal; adjusting a depth value of the 3D content according to the maximum depth value; and controlling a 3D content reproducing apparatus to display the alternative object corresponding to the interrupt signal, wherein the alternative object overlaps the 3D content of which the depth value is adjusted.

11. A method of displaying an alternative object while reproducing three-dimensional (3D) content, the method comprising:
-
reproducing the 3D content; while reproducing the 3D content, detecting an interrupt signal; obtaining a depth value of each 3D object included in the 3D content, in response to detecting the interrupt signal; determining a target 3D object having a depth value that is greater than or equal to a predetermined value; and displaying an alternative object corresponding to the interrupt signal in a different position from the target 3D object, wherein the alternative object overlaps the 3D content.
