Current 3-D video (3DV) technology is based on stereo systems. These systems use stereo
video coding for pictures delivered by two input cameras. Typically, such stereo systems …

This paper describes an extension of the high efficiency video coding (HEVC) standard for
coding of multi-view video and depth data. In addition to the known concept of disparity …

Abstract The Depth-Image-Based-Rendering (DIBR) is one of the main fundamental
technique to generate new views in 3D video applications, such as Multi-View Videos …

3DTV technology has brought out new challenges such as the question of synthesized
views evaluation. Synthesized views are generated through a depth image-based rendering …

A spectating system that leverages game metadata and/or broadcast metadata to provide
rewards to or otherwise acknowledge participants in broadcasts. The system may analyze …

A depth image-based rendering (DIBR) approach with advanced inpainting methods is
presented. The DIBR algorithm can be used in 3-D video applications to synthesize a …

Abstract Depth-Image-Based-Rendering (DIBR) techniques are essential for three-
dimensional (3D) video applications such as 3D Television (3DTV) and Free-Viewpoint …

This paper gives an end-to-end overview of 3D video and free viewpoint video, which can
be regarded as advanced functionalities that expand the capabilities of a 2D video. Free …

Most of the Depth Image Based Rendering (DIBR) techniques produce synthesized images
which contain nonuniform geometric distortions affecting edges coherency. This type of …

A game spectating system that leverages game metadata to allow spectators to join or “step
into” games being broadcast. Broadcast content may include user interface elements via …
