METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ESTIMATING DISPARITY VECTOR

摘要

The present invention provides a three-dimensional image encoding method, which includes: a step in which a three-dimensional image encoding apparatus receives a depth information map; a step in which the three-dimensional image encoding apparatus generates a disparity vector (DV) through an actual image (texture) received from a multi-view camera and the received depth information map; and a step in which the three-dimensional image encoding apparatus performs encoding of the disparity vector and the real image received from the multi-view camera. The disparity vector has a horizontal direction component (DVx) and a vertical direction component (DVy) orthogonal to the horizontal direction, and resets the vertical direction component through a surrounding block.
