Abstract
A system and method for adjusting perspective and disparity in a stereoscopic image pair using range information includes receiving the stereoscopic image pair representing a scene; identifying range information associated with the stereoscopic image pair and including distances of pixels in the scene from a reference location; generating a cluster map based at least upon an analysis of the range information and the stereoscopic images, the cluster map grouping pixels of the stereoscopic images by their distances from a viewpoint; identifying objects and background in the stereoscopic images based at least upon an analysis of the cluster map and the stereoscopic images; generating a new stereoscopic image pair at least by adjusting perspective and disparity of the object and the background in the stereoscopic image pair, the adjusting occurring based at least upon an analysis of the range information; and storing the new generated stereoscopic image pair in a processor-accessible memory system.
