Multi-viewpoint digital video encoding
- Summary
- Lead Inventors: Belle TsengMethod and system for encoding and decoding digital video are described. A multi-viewpoint digital video coder/decoder system.The method for encoding multi-viewpoint video involves selecting an image having a viewpoint vector. A depth map is formed for the first image. An image is predicted having a viewpoint vector by manipulating the image and the depth map. Prediction errors are calculated for reconstructing the image. The reverse is performed for decoding. The system comprises a depth estimator, predictor and a comparator.The multi-viewpoint coder/decoder compresses the digital information such that the information can be sent using a bandwidth as small as possible.
