Abstract
Methods and systems for generating stereoscopic content with granular control over binocular disparity based on multi-perspective imaging from representations of light fields are provided. A reference image, a three-dimensional ('3D') representation of a light field corresponding to the reference image, and a goal disparity image that indicates a goal binocular disparity for one or more pixels of the reference image may be received. For each pixel of an output image corresponding to the reference image, a point within the light field that is a closest match for the goal binocular disparity of a corresponding pixel of the goal disparity image may be determined. A stereoscopic image pair including the reference image and the output image may be generated.
