Embodiment Construction

[0030] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] figure 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the content conversion device 1 according to the exemplary embodiment. The content conversion device 1 converts two-dimensional (2D) content into three-dimensional (3D) content. In this exemplary embodiment, the content includes motion picture content (eg, movies, dramas, sports, etc.).

[0032] The content conversion apparatus 1 may receive 2D content to be converted into 3D content from a predetermined 2D content provider (not shown). The content conversion device 1 may receive 2D content from a 2D content provider through a predetermined network (not shown). For example, the 2D content provider may be a web server that stores 2D content and transmits the 2D content to the content conversion device 1 at the request of the content conversion device 1 .

[0033] According to another exemplary em...

Abstract

Provided are an apparatus and a method for converting 2D contents into high quality 3D contents at a low cost, and a computer-readable medium thereof. The method of converting the 2D contents into the 3D contents through a content converting apparatus includes: selecting a key frame from among plural frames of 2D contents that are video contents; extracting an object from the selected key frame; assigning depth to the extracted object for conversion into 3D contents; performing tracking on another frame other than the key frame from among the plural frames; and performing rendering on the key frame and the other frame. Accordingly, it is possible to convert 2D contents into high quality 3D contents at a low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] Apparatus and methods consistent with the exemplary embodiments relate to an apparatus and method for converting content and a computer-readable medium thereof, and more particularly, to a method for converting two-dimensional (2D) content into three-dimensional (3D) Apparatus and methods for content and computer-readable media thereof. Background technique [0002] Video contents such as movies, dramas, sports, etc. are reproduced in display devices such as televisions, personal computers, smart phones, smart tablets, portable multimedia players (PMP), MP3 players, etc. capable of reproducing the contents. [0003] With the recent development of display technology for three-dimensional (3D) images, such contents have been produced as 3D contents and reproduced by display devices capable of displaying 3D images. [0004] However, high-quality 3D content has disadvantages because, in order to produce such 3D content, large-scale equipment and developme...
