METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CONVERT STEREO CONTENT Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC H04N13/00 G06T5/40 G06T15/00 

FIELD: information technologies.

SUBSTANCE: initial chart of disparity/depth is calculated for a stereo image from 3D video; the depth chart is smoothened; parameters of depth perception are varied in compliance with estimation of eye fatigue; a new stereo image is generated in compliance with parameters of depth perception. The system of stereo content conversion for the purpose to reduce eye fatigue when viewing 3D video comprises a unit of depth chart calculation and smoothening, a unit of depth control, a unit of visualisation, at the same time the first outlet of the calculation unit and the depth chart smoothening is connected to the first inlet of the visualisation unit, the second outlet of the depth chart calculation and smoothening is connected to the inlet of depth control unit, the outlet of which is connected to the second inlet of the visualisation unit.

EFFECT: development of a device and a method to convert stereo content for reduction of eye fatigue when viewing 3D video and provision of stable control of depth perception during demonstration at a 3D television receiver.
