Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Visual discomfort from depth jumps in 3D video content is reduced or avoided by detecting the occurrence of a depth jump and by changing the disparity of a group of received image frames including the frames at the depth jump in order to adjust the perceived depth in a smooth transition across the group of image frames from a first disparity value to a second disparity value. Depth jumps may be detected, for instance, when content is switched from one 3D shot to another 3D shot.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for presenting stereoscopic content comprising a plurality of sequential stereoscopic image pairs, each image pair including a first view and a second view, the method comprising: detecting when there is a channel or scene change; detecting via occurrence of said channel or scene change an occurrence of a depth jump between a first and a second image pairs of the plurality of image pairs, the first and second image pairs being consecutive pa…
