DEPTH SEARCHING METHOD AND DEPTH ESTIMATING METHOD FOR MULTI-VIEWING ANGLE VIDEO IMAGE

摘要

A depth searching method for a multi-viewing angle video image is disclosed. The method involves dynamically adjusting searching step sizes in a depth searching range according to a current depth value so that each of the searching step sizes is corresponding to a same pixel searching accuracy. A depth estimating method for a multi-viewing angle video image is disclosed. The method involves dynamically adjusting each of the searching step sizes in a depth searching range in using a view synthesizing based on depths and a depth searching based on block matching.
