Binocular Parallax and Motion Speed Comfort Analysis
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for calculating discomfort degree in binocular stereoscopic videos fail to consider the mutual relation between binocular parallax and object movement speed, particularly lacking a quantitative analysis that distinguishes between positive and negative parallaxes, leading to inaccurate comfort assessments.
Innovation Solution
A method that analyzes binocular parallax and movement speed at each pixel point in a binocular stereoscopic video, using specific formulas to calculate a comfort degree value, considering both visual plane and depth direction movements, and employing conservative estimation strategies to determine the overall video comfort level.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional binocular stereoscopic imaging methods are used, then stereoscopic imaging can be achieved, but view angle-focusing mismatch causes discomfort to viewers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameters of binocular parallax and object movement speed to quantify their relationship with discomfort. By establishing a mathematical model that relates these parameters to comfort degree, the system can predict and optimize imaging parameters to reduce viewer discomfort while maintaining stereoscopic quality.
2Adaptability or versatility
If binocular parallax and object movement speed are increased, then stereoscopic effect is enhanced, but discomfort degree increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent establishes a feedback mechanism by calculating comfort degree based on binocular parallax and object movement speed parameters. This allows the system to evaluate the stereoscopic effect and adjust parameters to maintain optimal comfort levels while preserving the desired stereoscopic impact.
3Measurement precision
If existing comfort calculation methods are used, then some discomfort factors can be identified, but mutual relation between binocular parallaxes and movement speeds is not considered
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the analysis of binocular parallax and object movement speed into a unified comfort calculation model. By combining these previously separate factors into a single comprehensive formula, the system captures their mutual relationships and interactions, providing a more accurate assessment of viewer comfort.
4Measurement precision
If Jung et al.'s method is used, then binocular parallaxes and movement speeds can be calculated, but positive and negative binocular parallaxes are not distinguished
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by treating positive and negative binocular parallaxes differently in the comfort calculation formula. By assigning different coefficients and weights to positive and negative parallax values, the model captures the directional characteristics of depth perception and their differential impact on viewer comfort.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a method for acquiring a comfort degree of a motion-sensing binocular stereoscopic video. The method includes the following steps: S1. carrying out binocular parallax and movement speed analysis on an input binocular video, and calculating a binocular parallax d, a movement speed vxy in a visual plane direction and a movement speed vz in a depth direction of each pixel point in the video; S2. calculating a corresponding comfort degree value c according to the parameters (d, vxy, vz) of the pixel point; S3. calculating the comfort degree value of the entire frame according to the calculated comfort degree value of each pixel point; S4. calculating the comfort degree value of the entire video according to the comfort degree value of each frame. The comfort degree of the binocular stereoscopic video is calculated according to the steps in the present invention, so that influence of positive and negative depth ranges and object movement on the comfort degree can be well considered to obtain more accurate estimation of the comfort degree.
