| 20090164460 | Digital television video program providing system, digital television, and control method for the same - Disclosed are a digital television video program providing system, a digital television, and a control method for the same. The digital television video program providing system includes a video analyzing unit for extracting search terms from information data associated with a played video, a search keyword extracting unit for selecting a search keyword from the extracted search terms based on a reliability factor acquired by an extraction method of the extracted search terms, a video search unit for searching for a playable video based on the selected search keyword, and a search result providing unit for providing search results for the video. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20100073364 | Conversion method and apparatus with depth map generation - A conversion method and apparatus with a generating of a depth map for two dimensional (2D)-to-three dimensional (3D) conversion. A depth order may be restored based on a line tracing and an edge map generated from an input image, and a stereo image may be generated using depth information. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100110070 | 3D IMAGE GENERATION APPARATUS AND METHOD - A three-dimensional (3D) image generator and 3D image generation method scale a depth map or a two-dimensional (2D) image, perform a cross filtering to sharpen a blurred region on the depth map based on location information of the depth map and 2D image, and thus obtain a clearer depth map and provide a more graphical 3D image using the depth map. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100135581 | Depth estimation apparatus and method - A depth estimation apparatus is provided. The depth estimation apparatus may estimate a depth value of at least one pixel composing an input video based on feature information about at least one feature of the input video, a position of the at least one pixel, and a depth relationship among the at least one pixel and neighboring pixels. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100141757 | Method and apparatus for estimating depth, and method and apparatus for converting 2D video to 3D video - A depth estimation and conversion apparatus and method is provided. Depth of an video may be estimated by extracting feature information from the input video, and estimating the depth of the input video based on the extracted feature information. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100315488 | Conversion device and method converting a two dimensional image to a three dimensional image - Disclosed is an image conversion device and method converting a two-dimensional (2D) image into a three-dimensional (3D) image. The image conversion device may selectively adjust illumination within the 2D image, generate a disparity map for the illumination adjusted image, and selectively adjust a depth value of the disparity map based on edge discrimination. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100315492 | Local multi-view image display Apparatus and method - A local multi-view image display apparatus and method is provided. The local multi-view image display method may track a location of an observer, and locally display a multi-view input image on the tracked location. | 12-16-2010 |
