A method of encoding a depth map comprises:
allocating an object identifier to a plurality of objects without using distance measurement data;
defining a depth tag to each said object including
allocating a depth function including a linear ramp or radial ramp, and allocating a depth for each object, the depth representing the relative depth between said objects; and
producing a depth map by encoding said depth tag and said outlines of each said object, wherein the steps of allocating the object identifier, allocating the depth tag and defining the outline are performed by a computer or by receiving an input via pointing device. |
