RECORDING AND CREATING STEREO IMAGES AND STEREO VIDEO IN REAL TIME USING MONOSCOPIC LOW-POWER MOBILE DEVICE Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC H04N13/00 H04N5/232 G06T17/00 

FIELD: information technology.

SUBSTANCE: low-power mobile device for capturing images can create a stereo image and stereo video in time from one fixed type. For this purpose, statistics from an auto-focusing process is used to create a block depth map of one fixed type. In the block depth map, artefacts are suppressed and the depth map of the image is created. 3D left and right stereotypes are created from the depth map of the image using a 3D surface reconstruction process based on the Z-buffer and a mismatch map, which depends on the geometry of binocular vision.

EFFECT: providing a simple calculation process for detecting and estimating depth information for recording and creating stereo video in real time.
