摘要:
According to the present invention, a transmission apparatus and method and a reception method and apparatus for providing a 3D service are disclosed. The transmission method for providing the 3D service while making a reference image transmitted in real-time interwork with an additional image transmitted separately from the reference image includes a real-time reference image stream generating step of generating a real-time reference image stream based on the reference image and transmitting the generated real-time reference image stream to a receiving side in real-time and an additional image transmitting step of transmitting the additional image providing the 3D service in interworking with the reference image to the receiving side separately from the reference image stream, wherein the real-time reference image stream includes a linkage information, which is information relating to the additional image to be interworking with the reference image and synchronization information for synchronization with the reference image and the additional image and content.
