THREE DIMENSIONAL VIDEO FORMAT AUTOMATIC TRANSFORMATION APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

PURPOSE: A device for automatically converting the format of a 3D image and a method thereof are provided to determine a 3D image format and resolution which can be supported by various image output devices and automatically convert the format and resolution into a 3D image format and resolution suitable for each image output device. CONSTITUTION: A format determining unit(10) is connected to an image output device capable of 3D image output. The format determining unit determines a 3D image format and resolution which can be supported by the image output device. If a left image and a right image are inputted, a format converting unit(20) converts the left image and the right image into the image format and resolution according to the determination result.
