Claim Text:
1. A three-dimensional (3D) image processing apparatus comprising: an image processor configured to generate stereoscopic image processing information from an input image comprising a plurality of frames; a controller configured to perform an error identification operation for a part of the plurality of frames having the stereoscopic image processing information; and a display unit, wherein the display unit is configured to, in response to an error being identified, display error information for the par of the plurality of frames according to a result of the error identification operation performed by the controller. wherein the image processor is further configured to, in response to an error not being identified, perform a rendering operation based on the generated stereoscopic image processing information to process the input image into a stereoscopic image, wherein the display unit is further configured to display the stereoscopic image processed by the image processor, and wherein the image processor is further configured to select a key frame among the plurality of frames, extract an object comprised in the selected key frame, assign depth information to the extracted object, and track down a non-key frame among the plurality of frames to generate the stereoscopic image processing information.
