Abstract

An apparatus and method for processing three-dimensional (3D) information is described. The 3D information processing apparatus may measure first depth information of an object using a sensor apparatus such as a depth camera, may estimate a foreground depth of the object, a background depth of a background, and a degree of transparency of the object, may estimate second depth information of the object based on the estimated foreground depth, background depth, and degree of transparency, and may determine the foreground depth, the background depth, and the degree of transparency through comparison between the measured first depth information and the estimated second depth information.
