Patent Images
1. An apparatus for generating depth information comprising:
- a receiver which receives a two-dimensional (2D) image signal comprising a plurality of frames;
a user interface (UI) generator which generates a tool UI to input guide information for generating depth information;
a display unit which displays a frame, for which depth information is generated, among the plurality of frames, and the generated tool UI; and
a depth information generator which generates depth information corresponding to the guide information input by a user input through the tool UI,wherein the guide information, which is input through the tool UI, is input via at least one of a dot, a line, and a diagram on the frame displayed on the display unit, andwherein the depth information generator extracts location and color information of the tool UI on the frame and partitions the frame as a plurality of areas based on the location and color information.
