Abstract:
An image processing apparatus may include a sensor unit which generates both a color image and a depth image. A color-depth time difference correcting unit may correct a mismatching that occurs due to a time difference between a point in time when the color image is generated and a point in time when the depth image is generated. An image generator may generate a stereoscopic image or a multi-view image using the color image and the depth image after the mismatching is corrected.
Abstract:
A depth noise filtering method and apparatus is provided. The depth noise filtering method may perform spatial filtering or temporal filtering according to depth information. In order to perform spatial filtering, the depth noise filtering method may determine a characteristic of a spatial filter based on depth information. Also, in order to perform temporal filtering, the depth noise filtering method may determine a number of reference frames based on depth information. The depth noise filtering method may adaptively remove depth noise according to depth information and thereby enhance a noise filtering performance.
