Image output method for display device which outputs three-dimensional contents, and display device employing method

Abstract

The present invention relates to an image output method for a display device which outputs three-dimensional contents, and to a display device employing the method, and more specifically relates to: an image output method for a display device, wherein a judgment is made as to whether an image signal contains three-dimensional image data, the image signal is then subjected to image processing in accordance with whether or not it contains three-dimensional image data, and any three-dimensional image data contained in the image signal is output in 3D format; and to a display device employing the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image output method of a display device that outputs three-dimensional content and a display device using the method. More specifically, it relates to an image output method of a display device as follows and a display device using the method: After whether the signal contains 3D image data, according to whether the 3D image data is included, image processing is performed on the image signal, and the 3D data included in the image signal is output in a 3D format. Background technique [0002] Currently, the broadcasting environment is rapidly shifting from analog broadcasting to digital broadcasting. At the same time, the amount of content used for digital broadcasting has greatly increased compared to conventional analog broadcasting, and its variety is also abundant. In particular, recently, more attention has been paid to three-dimensional (3-dimensional: 3D) content that can further provide a sense of reality and...

Problems solved by technology

In addition, with the development of technology, more video signals can be output to the dialogue surface, and there may be 3D images in the video signals output to one screen.

[0003] However, when a part of the video signal includes 3D video, there is a problem as follows: it needs to be output in a different output method from 2D video, but the display device of the prior art cannot perform differentiated output processing on such a video signal.

[0004] That is, according to the conventional technology, when a part of the video signal includes 3D video, there is a problem as follows: no method for processing such 3D video has been developed, or video processing applied to 2D content has not yet been developed. The method is directly applied to the 3D content, so that the user cannot normally view and listen to the 3D content
