DEPTH MAP GENERATION TECHNIQUES FOR CONVERSION OF 2D VIDEO DATA TO 3D VIDEO DATA

摘要

This disclosure describes techniques for generating depth maps for video units, such as video frames or slices video frames. The techniques may be performed by a video encoder in order to convert two-dimensional (2D) video to three-dimensional (3D) video. The techniques may alternatively be performed by a video decoder in order to convert received 2D video to 3D video. The techniques may use a combination of motion and color considerations in the depth map generation process.
