Abstract

A method (100), an apparatus (200) and a computer program (204) for receiving an indication of a disparity range (SIVP1 D, SIVP2D) of an object scene from each of two or more stereoscopic imaging viewpoint pairs (SIVPi, SIVP2); receiving an indication of a disparity constraint (SDD) of a stereoscopic display (903); and selecting a stereoscopic imaging viewpoint pair whose disparity range is the largest and whose disparity range satisfies the disparity constraint of the stereoscopic display.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to methods, apparatuses, computer programs and computer readable storage media. In particular, the embodiments relate to methods, apparatus, computer programs and computer readable storage media in the field of stereoscopic imaging. Background technique [0002] Current stereoscopic systems use a pair of cameras with a fixed separation distance, typically designed to acquire images by each camera. A stereoscopic image is generated from the two images for display on a specific stereoscopic display. Such systems are limited to acquiring stereoscopic images of predetermined scene environments for display on predetermined displays. Thus there is a compatibility problem when viewing stereoscopic images with a display other than the intended display. Contents of the invention [0003] According to various, but not necessarily all, embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a method for receiving, ...
