First Claim
Patent Images
1. A converting method of an apparatus for converting a 2D video into a 3D video, the converting method comprising:
- creating a depth map image with respect to a first frame image, among a plurality of continuous frame images of the 2D video, by using color information of the first frame image;
creating depth map images with respect to second to final frame images, among the plurality of frame images, by using motion information between a current frame image and a previous frame image with respect to each frame image; and
creating a stereoscopic image by using the depth map images respectively created from the plurality of frame images.

Abstract
An apparatus for converting a 2D video into a 3D video updates a plurality of segmentation images of a previous frame by using motion information with respect to each frame, applies depth information of each segmentation image of the previous frame to a corresponding segmentation image of a subsequent frame to create a depth map image of each frame, and creates a stereoscopic image of each frame by using the depth map image of each frame.
