METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISPARITY VISUALIZATION

摘要

A method and system to generate and visualize the distribution of disparities in a stereo sequence and the way they change through time. The data representing the disparities are generated using the disparity and confidence maps of the stereo sequence. For each frame, a histogram of disparity-confidence pairs is generated. These data are later visualized on the screen, presenting the disparity for the full sequence in one graph.

1. A method comprising the steps of:
receiving a video stream comprising a plurality of 3D images; determining at least one disparity value for each of said plurality of 3D images; weighting each of said at least one disparity values with a confidence value to generate a plurality of weighted disparity values; normalizing each of said plurality of weighted disparity values to generate a plurality of normalized disparity values; and generating a graphical representation of said plurality of normalized disparity values where each of said plurality of normalized disparity values corresponds to a different time in said video stream.
