METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING MONO-VISION IN MULTI-VIEW SYSTEM
It is provided a method for providing mono-vision in a multi-view system comprising at least two views of the same scene and at least one viewing zone, wherein, each viewing zone is provided with two views, and the at least two views are arranged in a way that two adjacent views among the at least two views are provided to each viewing zone so as to provide stereo-vision. The method comprises the steps of receiving an instruction requesting a viewing zone to provide mono-vision; and rearranging the at least two views in a way that two views provided to the viewing zone that provides mono-vision are of the same view as one among the at least two views. An apparatus thereof is also provided.
1 - 8 . (canceled)
9 . A method for providing mono-vision in a multi-view system comprising at least three views of the same scene and at least two viewing zone, wherein, each viewing zone is provided with two views, and the at least three views are arranged in a way that two adjacent views among the at least three views are provided to each viewing zone so as to provide stereo-vision, characterized by the steps of
receiving an instruction requesting a viewing zone to provide mono-vision; and
rearranging the at least three views in a way that two views provided to the viewing zone that provides mono-vision are of the same view as one among the at least three views and two views provided to the other at least one viewing zone are two adjacent views among the at least three views.
10 . The method of the claim 9 , further comprising
detecting a current viewing zone where a viewer selecting mono-vision is as the viewer moves; and
rearranging the at least three views in a way that two views provided to the current viewing zone are of the same view as one among the at least three views.
11 . The method of the claim 10 , wherein the two views provided to previous viewing zone are changed to two adjacent views among the at least three views.
12 . An apparatus for providing mono-vision in a multi-view system comprising at least three views of the same scene and at least two viewing zone, wherein, each viewing zone is provided with two views, and the at least three views are arranged in a way that two adjacent views among the at least three views are provided to each viewing zone so as to provide stereo-vision, comprising
an input module used to receive at least three views of the same scene;
an instruction module used to receive an instruction for requesting to provide mono-vision for a viewing zone among the at least two viewing zone and pass the instruction to a pixel rearrangement module; and
the pixel rearrangement module used to, upon receiving instruction for requesting to provide mono-vision for a selected viewing zone, perform rearrangement for the at least three views in a way that two views provided to the selected viewing zone are of the same view as one among the at least three views and two views provided to the other at least one viewing zone are two adjacent views among the at least three views.
13 . The apparatus of the claim 12 , further comprising
a detecting module used to detect a current viewing zone where a viewer selecting mono-vision is as the viewer moves from a previous viewing zone, and send to the instruction module an instruction requesting to provide mono-vision for the current viewing zone; wherein,
the pixel rearrangement module is further used to make two views provided to the current viewing zone he of the same view as one among the at least three views.
14 . The apparatus of the claim 13 , wherein the two views provided to previous viewing zone are changed to two adjacent views among the at least three views.
