Abstract

3DTV promises to become the mainstream of next-generation TV systems. High resolution 3DTV provides users with a vivid watching experience. Moreover, free-viewpoint view synthesis (FVVS) extends the common two-view stereo 3D vision into virtual reality by generating unlimited views from any desired view point. In the next-generation 3DTV systems, the set-top box (STB) SoC requires both a high-definition (HD) multiview video-coding (MVC) decoder to recon struct the real camera-captured scenes and a free-viewpoint view synthesizer to generate the virtual scenes.
