Abstract
A system and method for converting two dimensional video to three dimensional video includes a processor having an input for receiving a two dimensional image data and an output for outputting three dimensional image data to a display. The processor is configured to receive two dimensional image data, segment a specific object in the two dimensional image data based on variations in brightness and sharpness in the two dimensional image data to identify and locate the specific object in the two dimensional image data. The processor is also configured to adjust the depth value of the specific object over the period of time as the size of the specific object changes in each of the two dimensional images or adjust the depth value of the specific object over the period of time as the size of the specific object changes in each of the two dimensional images.
