Method and apparatus for converting 2D content into 3D content

摘要

A method and apparatus for converting two-dimensional (2D) contents into three-dimensional (3D) contents is disclosed. The method including: displaying a frame, the frame containing an object which will be extracted from among plural frames contained in the 2D contents; designating a boundary region of an object to be extracted on the displayed frame, in accordance with a user command through a user interface (UI) for collectively designating a region; generating a trimap based on the designated boundary region including inner and outer regions of the object to be extracted, and extracting the object based on the generated trimap. With this, a user can more conveniently and efficiently convert 2D contents into 3D contents.

1. A method of converting video contents, which converts two-dimensional (2D) contents into three-dimensional (3D) contents through a content converting apparatus, the method comprising:
displaying a frame including an object which will be extracted, from among plural frames contained in the 2D contents; displaying a user interface (UI) comprising a line having a predetermined thickness in a region between inner region and outer region of the object to be extracted on the displayed frame; designating a boundary region between the inner region and the outer region of the object to be extracted on the displayed frame based on a user input on the displayed UI; generating a trimap comprising the designated boundary region, the inner region and the outer region of the object to be extracted; and extracting the object based on the generated trimap.
