20090164986 | Extended package scheme to support application program downloading, and system and method for application porogram service using the same - Provided is a package scheme to support application program downloading and a method and a system for an application program download service using the same in a system such as a TV-Anytime system. A method for forming a package capable of supporting application program downloading includes the steps of: a) generating metadata on general information of the application program including type information of the application program; b) generating metadata on detailed information of the application program including version information of the application program; c) generating metadata on usage environment of a terminal to which the application program is applied; and d) generating a package including the application program and all the metadata. | 06-25-2009 |
20100195898 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING QUALITY OF DEPTH IMAGE - A method and apparatus for enhancing quality of a depth image are provided. A method for enhancing quality of a depth image includes: receiving a multi-view image including a left image, a right image, and a center image; receiving a current depth image frame and a previous depth image frame of the current depth image frame; setting an intensity difference value corresponding to a specific disparity value of the current depth image frame by using the current depth image frame and the previous depth image frame; setting a disparity value range including the specific disparity value; and setting an intensity difference value corresponding to the disparity value range of the current depth image frame by using the multi-viewpoint image. | 08-05-2010 |
20100315490 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING DEPTH INFORMATION - An apparatus for generating depth information, includes: a projector configured to project a predetermined pattern to an object to be photographed; a left camera configured to acquire a left image of a structured light image which is generated by projecting the predetermined pattern to the object; a right camera configured to acquire a right image of the structured light image; a depth information generating unit configured to determine correspondence points based on the left image, the right image and the structured light pattern, to generate depth information of the image, to determine the depth information by applying a stereo matching method to the left image and the right image when the structured light pattern cannot be applied to a field of the image, and to generate depth information of entire image based on the acquired depth information. | 12-16-2010 |
20110149031 | STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE, MULTI-VIEW IMAGE, AND DEPTH IMAGE ACQUISITION APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - Provided is a camera apparatus, including: a camera unit including at least two cameras to acquire a stereoscopic image; a camera control unit to adjust a view angle of the at least two cameras and an interval between the at least two cameras; a depth information obtainment unit to obtain depth information from the stereoscopic image; and an intermediate image generator to generate an intermediate image based on the stereoscopic image and the depth information. | 06-23-2011 |
20110150321 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EDITING DEPTH IMAGE - Provided is a method of editing a depth image, comprising: receiving a selection on a depth image frame to be edited and a color image corresponding to the depth image frame; receiving a selection on an interest object in the color image; extracting boundary information of the interest object; and correcting a depth value of the depth image frame using the boundary information of the interest object. | 06-23-2011 |
20110234769 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING IMAGES IN IMAGE SYSTEM - An apparatus for displaying images in an image system includes: an encoder configured to encode color and depth images of at least one view received from a plurality of imaging devices and generate a reference image by synthesizing the encoded depth image of a current view and the encoded color and depth images before and after the current view based on a predetermined method; a decoder configured to decode a color image of the current view by using the generated reference image and decode the encoded color and depth images of at least one view; and a splitter configured to divide and split, based on each view, the decoded color and depth images of at least one view. | 09-29-2011 |
20110261883 | MULTI- VIEW VIDEO CODING/DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS - Provided is a multi-view video coding/decoding method and apparatus which uses coded and decoded multi-view videos to code and decode depth information videos corresponding to the multi-view videos. The multi-view video coding method includes: controlling the scales of first and second depth information videos corresponding to a multi-view video such that the scales are equalized; and coding the second depth information video, of which the scale is controlled, by referring to the first depth information video of which the scale is controlled. | 10-27-2011 |
20140286415 | VIDEO ENCODING/DECODING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SAME - According to the present invention, a video decoding method comprises: a step of decoding a first bitstream corresponding to a base layer image based on first decoding information corresponding to the image that belongs to the view which is different from the view to which the base layer image belongs; and a step of decoding a second bitstream corresponding to an enhancement layer image based on second decoding information corresponding to the base layer image and third decoding information corresponding to the image that belongs to the view which is different from the view to which the enhancement layer image belongs. | 09-25-2014 |
