Patent ID: 8860785

Claim:
A method of displaying anaglyph video in place of stereo 3D video, the method comprising: receiving via a video pipeline, stereo 3D video data employing a YUV color space, wherein the video pipeline comprises a plurality of video pipeline components, wherein the plurality of video pipeline components comprise at least a video processor and a display; using a computing device, generating anaglyph video data from the stereo 3D video data, the generating comprising: unpacking the stereo 3D video data to a left view and a right view; and combining the left view and the right view into a single view, the anaglyph video data comprising the single view, wherein: the combining uses anaglyph transform matrices that correspond to a configuration of the plurality of video pipeline components associated with the received stereo 3D video data; coefficients for the anaglyph transform matrices are selected based on one or more configuration characteristics associated with the plurality of video pipeline components, the one or more configuration characteristics including at least one of a chroma sampling scheme and a chroma sampling arrangement, and configuration characteristics of one or more of a video capture device, a display and/or viewing glasses; and the resulting anaglyph video data has at least a minimum display aperture and a pixel aspect ratio to be displayed on the display; and displaying video encoded in the stereo 3D video data in anaglyph form.
