THREE DIMENSIONAL (3D) VIDEO FOR TWO-DIMENSIONAL (2D) VIDEO MESSENGER APPLICATIONS

摘要

Three-dimensional (3D) video is provided to a legacy two-dimensional (2D) video messenger application. A request for video content from a single video camera is received at a camera interface module from the 2D video messenger application. The request for video content from the single video camera is forwarded to a video processing offload module. A first video camera and a second video camera are controlled. Merged 3D video content from the video processing offload module is received. The merged 3D video content is sent to the 2D video messenger application in response to receipt of the merged 3D video content from the video processing offload module. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.
