Abstract:
1. A 2D to 3D image conversion apparatus, for converting a 2D image to a 3D image, comprising: a data queue for receiving and temporarily storing an input data value of a current pixel of the 2D image; a conversion unit, wherein the conversion unit outputs a current offset table corresponding to a current depth parameter of the current pixel, the current offset table including (m+1) reference offsets corresponding to the current pixel and neighboring m pixels, m being a positive integer; and an offset calculation unit, coupled to the data queue and the conversion unit, wherein the offset calculation unit selects one of the reference offsets corresponding to the current pixel in the current offset table and multiple previous offset tables as a data offset corresponding to the current pixel; wherein the data queue selects and outputs an output data value of the 3D image corresponding to the current pixel according to an integer part of the data offset and the input data value.
