EFFICIENT ENCODING OF MULTIPLE VIEWS

摘要

A new image signal receiver is described, comprising means arranged to extract from a three-dimensional image signal a left image of pixel values representing one or more objects captured by a left camera; and means arranged to extract from the three-dimensional image signal a map comprising for respective sets of pixels of the left image respective values representing a three-dimensional position in space of a region of the one or more objects represented by the respective set of pixels; and means arranged to extract from the three-dimensional image signal a partial representation of a right image of pixel values representing one or more objects captured by a right camera, the partial representation comprising at least information of the majority of the pixels representing regions of the one or more objects not visible to the left camera. Advantages are less required information for higher precision and increased usability.
