INTELLIGENT RENDERING CORE TO PROCESS 2D+Z TO ANY (AUTO) STEREOSCOPIC DISPLAY

2D+Z the content format which has been accepted by the market as the easiest, cost-effective, highest quality and most interoperable 3D content format is now accessible for all 3D displays. Read more about 2D+Z…

In order to visualize 3D data from 2D+Z on a 3D display with high picture quality, specific processing is required. Dimenco Rendering Core creates multiple views out of the 2D+Z data structure. Those views correspond to different viewing angles of the scene in the 3D video or graphics.

The amount of depth, as well as the positioning of the depth in front of or behind the display, is determined by the generation of the views. View generation is followed by interweaving, whereby pixels from different views are combined in a special pattern that fits the geometry of the lenses placed over the display.

Because the lenses are designed to completely cover some pixels and overlap others, the interweaving takes place at the subpixel level. Interweaving trongly influences the quality of the final 3D effect.

Real-time operation and high flexibility characterize the entire rendering process. On the one hand, the process can be adapted to different display designs; on the other hand, the end user can optimize the process for the environment in which the display is to be used.

A rendering solution, implemented as a flexible hardware engine, is situated in the Dimenco rendering core for the best picture quality for each use scenario. Furthermore, the rendering processes different 3D data formats for a given 3D display. As a result, 3D data can be independent of the display. Check out Dimenco’s Rendering Box.
