A method of depth map generation is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: scaling down a video unit and a previous video unit to generate a reduced video unit and a reduced previous video unit; dividing the reduced video unit into N1 portions and a buffer into N2 storing units; performing a motion estimation for a target pixel of the reduced video unit to obtain a motion vector based on pixels in a preset search window established in the reduced previous video unit; assigning a depth value to the target pixel according to the motion vector; storing the target pixel in one of the N2 storing units sequentially; and, repeating the steps of performing, assigning and storing until all pixels of the reduced video unit are processed to obtain a motion depth map.

Depth map generation for conversion of two-dimensional image data into three-dimensional image data

A method for multi-threshold voltage CMOS process optimization. The method includes the steps of: providing a semiconductor substrate with a plurality of devices of different threshold voltages; establishing a plurality of types of timing models for a timing calculation; obtaining a static timing analysis report through the timing calculation; defining a large and a small setup time margin as a Tl and a Ts; changing the devices whose setup time margins are less than Ts to low threshold devices; changing the devices whose setup time margins are greater than Tl to high threshold devices; checking a setup time of each device; changing the devices whose setup time margin does not meet the enhanced static timing analysis report; performing a first pocket implant process for the normal threshold devices; performing a second pocket implant process for the low threshold devices and performing a third pocket implant process for the high threshold devices.
