| 20080273599 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING AND DECODING MULTI-VIEW VIDEO DATA - Provided are a method and apparatus for encoding and decoding multi-view video data. The method of encoding multi-view video data includes determining whether a current picture is an anchor picture; and encoding blocks of the current picture by selectively applying a skip block mode to the blocks if the current picture is the anchor picture. According to the present invention, image quality and coding efficiency may be improved. | 11-06-2008 |
| 20090003455 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ILLUMINATION COMPENSATION IN MULTI-VIEW VIDEO CODING - Disclosed is a method and apparatus for illumination compensation in a multi view video coding. The method includes deriving a predicted illumination compensation value of the current block by using information on neighbor blocks of the current block when a current block performing illumination compensation is in a skip mode; setting the current block not to perform the illumination compensation when the derived predicted illumination compensation value is 0 and setting the current block to perform the illumination compensation when the derived predicted illumination compensation value is not 0. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090010340 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ILLUMINATION COMPENSATION IN MULTI-VIEW VIDEO CODING - Disclosed is a method of determining illumination compensation in a multi view video coding. The method includes determining when a current block performing illumination compensation is in a B skip mode and deriving a predicted illumination compensation value of the current block by using information regarding neighbor blocks of the current block and when the derived predicted illumination compensation value is not determining, setting the current block not to perform the illumination compensation; and when the derived predicted illumination compensation value is determining, setting the current block to perform the illumination compensation. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090122134 | METHOD OF RECORDING THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DATA - A method of storing 3D image data in a recording medium includes: loading, in a predetermined file type field, image type information indicating either one of a single stereoscopic image or a compound image including a monoscopic image and a stereoscopic image; loading, in a predetermined image configuration information container field, scene descriptor information indicating temporal and spatial relations between a plurality of media objects included in the three-dimensional image, object configuration information indicating attributes of each media object of said plurality of media objects and a configuration relation between encoded streams of the plurality of media objects, configuration information of the encoded streams; loading in an image data container field media data of an image to be stored; and loading, in a meta container field, metadata including information for playing the 3D image data. | 05-14-2009 |

The file format for an encoded stereoscopic image includes an image data unit containing image information of the encoded stereoscopic image and a header unit containing meta data used to decode and reproduce the image information of the encoded stereoscopic image contained in the image data unit. The header unit can include at least one header unit of a camera header sub-unit containing information on left and right cameras used to acquire the stereoscopic image, a codec header sub-unit containing information on the encoding of the stereoscopic image, and a display header sub-unit containing information on a barrier type display apparatus for receiving and reproducing the encoded stereoscopic image data. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100242071 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSFERRING USER INFORMATION BETWEEN TERMINALS IN BROADCAST STREAMING SERVICE - A method and apparatus for transferring user information between different terminals are disclosed. The method includes saving by a first terminal, when a change is made to user information during playback of content, the changed user information in a scene history, performing a terminal change from the first terminal to a second terminal, and resuming, by the second terminal, playback of the content from a continued scene after the last scene played back by the first terminal. Consequently, in a terminal change, the user may use the second terminal to play back the same content from the continued scene using the same content usage environment as the first terminal. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100259596 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DATA - A method and apparatus transmitting stereoscopic image data according to a variable channel environment are provided. The method includes granting a priority to each of a plurality of frames constituting one image group; determining a number of transmittable frames based on a variable channel environment; and selecting transmittable frames from among the plurality of frames based on the determined number of transmittable frames and the granted priories | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100290483 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DATA - A method for transmitting stereoscopic images using a variety of transport protocols is provided. To this end, a stereoscopic image packet is defined that comprises a stereoscopic packet header and a stereoscopic video packet header. The defined stereoscopic packet header and stereoscopic video packet header are used to transmit metadata needed for transmission of stereoscopic images.
