Abstract

Image processing is performed to facilitate subtractive crosstalk cancellation in 3D images. In a global embodiment, pixel values are compressed to provide sufficient foot room for subtractive crosstalk cancellation. For video images the degree of compression may vary from frame to frame. Temporal filtering may be applied to reduce flicker. In a local embodiment luminance is added to and/or compression is performed in local areas to facilitate more complete subtractive crosstalk cancellation. The amount or added luminance or compression may be matched to the requirements of the local areas. Added luminance and/or compression may be made to vary smoothly in time and smoothly in space. Displays and other apparatus may be constructed to perform methods for partial or complete crosstalk cancellation.
