METHOD OF MULTI-VIEW IMAGE FORMATION AND STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A multi-view image generation method and a 3D image display device using the same are provided to search a direction of an edge in a boundary unit of an image and an image loss area and supplement the images of the image loss area corresponding to the direction of the edge. CONSTITUTION: A 3D image display device generates a multi-view image by using an input image that a 2D image and a depth map are inputted together(S102). The 3D image display device detects a boundary unit coordinate of an image and an image loss area from each view(S106). The 3D image display device searches a direction of an edge from the boundary unit coordinate(S108). The 3D image display device fills image data of the image loss area corresponding to the direction of the edge(S109).
