Motion Compensation - 3D Image Coding Techniques

3D Image Coding Techniques

Motion compensation is utilized in Stereoscopic Video Coding

In video, time is often considered as the third dimension. Still image coding techniques can be expanded to an extra dimension.

JPEG2000 uses wavelets, and these can also be used to encode motion without gaps between blocks in an adaptive way. Fractional pixel affine transformations lead to bleeding between adjacent pixels. If no higher internal resolution is used the delta images mostly fight against the image smearing out. The delta image can also be encoded as wavelets, so that the borders of the adaptive blocks match.

2D+Delta Encoding techniques utilize H.264 and MPEG-2 compatible coding and can use motion compensation to compress between stereoscopic images.

Expanding the 8x8 JPEG blocks into the third dimension that is into 8x8x8 cubes and modifying the DCT more into a DFT enables compression of linear translations with speeds below and around one pixel per frame (sub-pixel precision).

Famous quotes containing the words image and/or techniques:

    Lear. Thou hast seen a farmer’s dog bark at a beggar?
    Gloucester. Ay, sir.
    Lear. And the creature run from the cur? There thou mightst behold the great image of authority: a dog’s obeyed in office.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is easy to lose confidence in our natural ability to raise children. The true techniques for raising children are simple: Be with them, play with them, talk to them. You are not squandering their time no matter what the latest child development books say about “purposeful play” and “cognitive learning skills.”
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)
