Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: providing at least one video frame, each video frame comprising at least two stereo images and having a stereoscopic property characterizing a stereoscopic relationship between the at least two stereo images of the respective video frame; and stereoscopically modifying a video frame by altering at least a first of the stereo images of the video frame using at least one mapping function and by operation of one or more computer processors, wherein the first stereo image has a first set of pixels and a second set of pixels; wherein the at least one mapping function comprises a non-linear warp function configured to warp the first set of pixels to a greater extent than the second set of pixels, in mapping from the stereoscopically unmodified first stereo image to the stereoscopically modified first stereo image, thereby modifying the stereoscopic property of the video frame.
