Abstract

The invention relates to an image rendering method by utilizing a depth image. The image rendering method is characterized by comprising the following steps of (1) inputting a color image and the corresponding depth image, (2) inputting rendering parameters of a new viewpoint, (3) rendering the new viewpoint by utilizing the color image and the depth image to obtain a color image I, (4) performing post treatment on the color image I to obtain an image II and (5) outputting the obtained image II. According to the image rendering method, the process of image rendering and the process of hole filling are combined, and therefore the problem of hole filling is directly solved in the process of image rendering. In this way, the method not only can lower the time complexity of an algorithm but also can improve the quality of image rendering.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of three-dimensional video processing, and in particular relates to an image drawing method using a depth map. Background technique [0002] Depth Image Based Rendering (DIBR) is the main method for virtual viewpoint synthesis in the field of 3D video processing. It uses the color map and its corresponding depth map to draw the virtual viewpoint. However, the disadvantage of viewpoint rendering based on DIBR is that holes inevitably exist in the rendered virtual image. The reason for the hole is that the coordinate mapping process is not a one-to-one relationship. Many coordinates in the virtual viewpoint do not correspond to the original color image, and appear as holes in the image. Therefore, in order to improve the quality of virtual viewpoint rendering, the generation of holes must be avoided. [0003] However, the general method of removing holes is to post-process the obtained virtual viewpoint, that is, to...
