This paper describes a 3-DTIP(3-D Tour Into Picture) using depth map for a Korean classical painting being composed of persons and landscape. Unlike conventional TIP methods providing 2-D image or video, our proposed TIP can provide users with 3-D stereoscopic contents. Navigating inside a picture provides more realistic and immersive perception. The method firstly makes depth map. Input data consists of foreground object, background image, depth map, foreground mask. Firstly we separate foreground object and background, make each of their depth map. Background is decomposed into polygons and assigned depth value to each vertexes. Then a polygon is decomposed into many triangles. Gouraud shading is used to make a final depth map. Navigating into a picture uses OpenGL library. Our proposed method was tested on "Danopungjun" and "Muyigido" that are famous paintings made in Chosun Dynasty. The stereoscopic video was proved to deliver new 3-D perception better than 2-D video.

Since the stereoscopic 3-dimensional (3D) video that provides users with a realistic multimedia service requires twice as much data as 2-dimensional (2D) video, it is difficult to construct the fast system. In this paper, we propose a fast stereoscopic 3D broadcasting system based on the depth information. Before the transmission, we encode the input 2D+depth video using x264, an open source H.264/AVC fast encoder to reduce the size of the data. At the receiver, we decode the transmitted bitstream in real time using a compute unified device architecture (CUDA) video decoder API on NVIDIA graphics processing unit (GPU). Then, we apply a fast view synthesis method that generates the virtual view using GPU. The proposed system can display the output video in both 2DTV and 3DTV. From the experiment, we verified that the proposed system can service the stereoscopic 3D contents in 24 frames per second at most.

A stereoscopic PIV (SPIV) measurement system based on the translation configuration was developed and applied to the flow behind a forward-swept axial-fan. Measurement of three orthogonal velocity components is essential for flow analysis of three-dimensional flows such as flow around a fan or propeller. In this study, the translation configuration was adopted to calculate the out-of-plane velocity component from 2-D PIV data obtained from two CCD cameras. The error caused by the out-of-plane motion was estimated by direct comparison of the 2-D PIV and 3-D SPIV results that measured from the particle images captured simultaneously. The comparison shows that the error ratio is relatively high in the region of higher out-of-plane motion near the axial fan blade. The turbulence intensity measured by the 2-D PIV method is bigger by about 5.8% in maximum compared with that of the 3-D SPIV method. The phase-averaged velocity field results show that the wake behind an axial fan has a periodic flow structure with respect to the blade phase and the characteristic flow structure is shifted downstream in the next phase.

The paper actualizes the twin camera module system that is portable and very useful for the production of 3D contents. The suggested twin camera module system is a system to be able to display the 3D image after converting the inputted image from 2D stereo camera. To evaluate the performance of the twin camera module suggested in this paper, I assessed the correction of Rotation and Tilt created depending on the visual difference between the left and right stereoscopic image shot by the left and right lenses by using the Test Platform. In addition, I verified the efficiency of the twin camera module system through verifying Depth Error of 3D stereoscopic image by means of Scale Invariant Feature Transform(SIFT) algorithm. I think that if the user utilizes the suggested twin camera module system in displaying the image to the external after converting the shot image into the 3D stereoscopic image and the preparation image, it is possible to display the image in a matched way with an output device fit respectively for different 3D image production methods and if the user utilizes the system in displaying the created image in the form of the 3D stereoscopic image and the preparation image via different channels, it is possible to produce 3D image contents easily and conveniently with applying to lots of products.

After its remarkable success, "Avatar" brought another way of creating cinematic story; the stereoscopic 3-D cinema. Comparing conventional 2-D filmmaking, you need twice as much of budget and manpower in 3-D filmmaking because of the complicated process and slow production speed. The 3-D hardware like 3-D TV and 3-D projector are already showing at the retail stores while 3-D filmmaking is still in veil, and no major educational institution is yet to start 3-D related education. As 3-D movies get popular and demand more 3-D filmmaking professional crew, educating 3-D filmmaking to 2-D based film students will improve their hiring rate in the market. The successful result of the box office showing 3-D films like "Alice in Wonderland 3D" and "Titan 3D" forecasts that there will be more demand on 3-D related jobs very soon.

It is well known that high-resolution 3D movie contents frequently do not deliver the identical 3D perception to low-resolution 3D images. For solving this problem, we propose a novel method that produces a new stereoscopic image based on depth map transformation using the spatial complexity of an image. After analyzing the depth map histogram, the depth map is decomposed into multiple depth planes that are transformed based upon the spatial complexity. The transformed depth planes are composited into a new depth map. Experimental results demonstrate that the lower the spatial complexity is, the higher the perceived video quality and depth perception are. As well, visual fatigue test showed that the stereoscopic images deliver less visual fatigue.

In this paper, we propose a method of frame synchronization for stereoscopic 3D video to solve the viewing problem caused by synchronization errors between a left video and a right video using the temporal frame difference image depending on the movement of objects. Firstly, we compute two temporal frame difference images from the left video and the right video which are corrected the vertical parallax between two videos using rectification, and calculate two horizontal projection profiles of two temporal frame difference images. Then, we find a pair of synchronized frames of the two videos by measuring the mean of absolute difference (MAD) of two horizontal projection profiles. Experimental results show that the proposed method can be used for stereoscopic 3D video, and is robust against Gaussian noise and video compression by H.264/AVC.

In the present study a 3D data visualization and analysis program with stereoscopic viewing is introduced. The GUI of the program is based on Qt-library, while all the graphic rendering is performed with OpenGL library. The program allocates memory dynamically according to the data size so that the problem size is only limited by the computer's hardware memory. The stereoscopic viewing is realized by carefully-calibrated projection and color-masking of red and blue color for the left and right eye, and the only hardware needed for the stereoscopic visualization of 3D data is a cheap and easily-available red/blue glasses. Further work for addition of more functions and options to the present program will be continued.

This paper describes work by the authors aimed at reducing the mismatch between accommodation and convergence when viewing stereoscopic 3D images. Two methodologies, one a simple system with a mono-focal lens and the other a dynamic system using a moving LCD, were introduced as experimental 3D displays with optical correction. The results of usage evaluations suggest improvements in health and amenity can be achieved with stereoscopic representation with accommodation.

In this paper, we describe the latest LCD driving technology which helps to realize the stereoscopic 3D display system with FHD resolution by using the 240Hz LCD panel. The 240Hz LCD system has two times more data than current 120Hz and can cover the crosstalk due to the progressive scan.
