Abstract:
Provided is a multi-view video coding/decoding method and apparatus which uses coded and decoded multi-view videos to code and decode depth information videos corresponding to the multi-view videos. The multi-view video coding method includes: controlling the scales of first and second depth information videos corresponding to a multi-view video such that the scales are equalized; and coding the second depth information video, of which the scale is controlled, by referring to the first depth information video of which the scale is controlled.
Abstract:
Provided is a multi-view video coding/decoding method and apparatus which uses coded and decoded multi-view videos to code and decode depth information videos corresponding to the multi-view videos (301 ). The multi-view video coding method includes: controlling the scales of first (503) and second depth information videos corresponding to a multi-view video such that the scales are equalized; and coding the second depth information video, of which the scale is controlled, by referring to the first depth information video (503) of which the scale is controlled.
Abstract:
Provide is a 3-dimensional Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (3D DMB) system. The present invention can provide a 3D DMB system providing a more realistic 3D Audio/Video (AV) service to a user, while maintaining comparability with a conventional DMB system, by processing a binocular 3D image and 3D sound based on a conventional system structure. The 3D DMB system includes: a video encoder for receiving and encoding a video signal of a binocular 3D image; an audio encoder for receiving and encoding an audio signal of a 3D sound; a packetizor for packetizing the encoded video and audio signals into an Sync Layer (SL) packet; and a multiplexer for transforming and multiplexing the SL packet packetized by the packetizer. A 3D DMB receiving system includes: a demultiplexer for demultiplexing a stream including binocular 3D image information and 3D sound information; a depacketizer for depacketizing the SL packet and outputting a decoding stream of an 3D video signal and a 3D sound audio signal; a video decoder for decoding a encoding stream for a video signal of the binocular 3D image; an audio decoder for decoding a encoding stream for the 3D sound audio signal; and a scene restorer for forming and outputting a 2D AV or 3D AV scene by using a video/3D additional video and an audio/3D additional audio signal which are received from the video decoder and the audio decoder.
