AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This approach enables more accurate and efficient generation of stereoscopic images with improved perceived quality, reducing distortion and visual anomalies, and allowing for more precise representation of object surfaces and transformations, enhancing the three-dimensional effect.

Problems solved by technology

Specifically, the stretching operations cause distortion of the object being stretched.

Embodiment Construction

[0021]Referring now to the drawings, FIG. 1 depicts sequence 100 of video images that may be processed according to some representative embodiments. Sequence 100 of video images includes key frames 101-104. Multiple other frames may exist between these key frames.

[0022]As shown in FIG. 1, sphere 150 possesses multiple tones and / or chromatic content. One half of sphere 150 is rendered using first tone 151 and the other half of sphere 150 is rendered using second tone 152. Sphere 150 undergoes rotational transforms through video sequence 100. Accordingly, in key frame 102, a greater amount of tone 151 is seen relative to key frame 101. In key frame 103, sufficient rotation has occurred to cause only tone 151 of sphere 150 to be visible. In key frame 104, tone 152 becomes visible again on the opposite side of sphere 150 as compared to the position of tone 152 in key frame 101.

[0023]Box 160 is subjected to scaling transformations in video sequence 100. Specifically, box 160 becomes smal...

Abstract

Some representative embodiments are directed to creating a “virtual world” by processing a series of two dimensional images to generate a representation of the physical world depicted in the series of images. The virtual world representation includes models of objects that specify the locations of the objects within the virtual world, the geometries of the objects, the dimensions of the objects, the surface representation of the objects, and / or other relevant information. By developing the virtual world representation, a number of image processing effects may be applied such as generation of stereoscopic images, object insertion, object removal, object translation, and / or other object manipulation operations.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a Continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 467,626 filed on May 18, 2009, entitled “SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING VIDEO IMAGES,” which is a Continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 946,955 filed on Sep. 22, 2004, entitled “SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING VIDEO IMAGES,” now U.S. Pat. No. 7,542,034 the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention is generally directed to processing graphical images.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]A number of technologies have been proposed and, in some cases, implemented to perform a conversion of one or several two dimensional images into one or several stereoscopic three dimensional images. The conversion of two dimensional images into three dimensional images involves creating a pair of stereoscopic images for each three dimensional frame. The stereoscopic images can then be presented to a viewer...
