Abstract
A transmission apparatus includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a reception apparatus, and a controller configured to acquire a depth image obtained by at least one depth camera measuring distances to a subject within a measurement range, identify, with reference to the acquired depth image, a window corresponding to a position of the subject from among a plurality of windows set within the measurement range and aligned in a depth direction, transmit a window identifier identifying the identified window to the reception apparatus via the communication interface, and for each pixel of the depth image, convert a measured distance into a relative distance within the window and transmit a resulting converted value as pixel data to the reception apparatus via the communication interface.
