Abstract

A video processor decompresses stereoscopic left and right reference frames of compressed 3D video. New left and right frames are interpolated. The frames may be stored and/or communicated for display. The left and right frames are combined into a single frame of a single stream or may be sequenced in separate left and right streams. The left and right frames are interpolated based on the combined single stream and/or based on the separate left and right streams. Motion vectors are determined for one of the separate left or right streams. The frames are interpolated utilizing motion compensation. Areas of occlusion are determined in the separate left and right streams. Pixels are interpolated for occluded areas of left or right frames of separate streams from uncovered areas in corresponding opposite side frames. The left and right interpolated and/or reference frames are displayed as 3D and/or 2D video.
