  • Patent number: 9088771
    Abstract: A mobile terminal as disclosed and broadly embodied herein may include a 3D display configured to display an object that includes a first and second images and a controller configured to change a magnification of the object that includes a first scaled image and a second scaled image and to correct a binocular disparity between the first and second scaled images. The controller may be configured to determine a binocular disparity between the first and second scaled images, determine whether the binocular disparity is within a prescribed range of disparity, reposition at least one of the first or second magnified images based on the determined binocular disparity, and control the display to display the corrected first and second scaled images.

  • Patent number: 8866879
    Abstract: A mobile terminal including a first camera configured to receive an input of a first image; a second camera configured to receive an input of a second image; a touchscreen configured to display a photograph command key including a first zone, a second zone and a common zone; and a controller configured to set a photograph mode selected from a 3D photograph mode and a 2D photograph mode, to control the first and second cameras to respectively capture the first and second images upon receiving a photograph command touch action on the common zone, and to perform either a 3D image processing or a 2D image processing on the photographed first and second images according to the set photograph mode.

  • Patent number: 8780258
    Abstract: Provided are a mobile terminal and a method for generating an out-of-focus image, whereby a preview image and a depth map are displayed when an out-of-focus function of the mobile terminal is selected by a user, the displayed depth map is adjusted based on a specific object that is selected from the displayed preview image, an image is captured via a camera of the mobile terminal, and an out-of-focus image is generated by blurring the captured image according to the adjusted depth map.

  • Publication number: 20120113105
    Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a memory configured to store at least one 2-dimensional (2D) image and at least one 3-dimensional (3D) image. A display unit is configured to display the images. A controller is configured to control the display unit to display a list including the at least one 2D image and the at least one 3D image when a command for displaying the list is input, and to control at least one image being one of the 2D image or the 3D image distinguishably displayed from another of the 2D image or the 3D image.

  • Publication number: 20120069005
    Abstract: A mobile terminal and a method of controlling the operation of the mobile terminal are provided. The method includes dividing each of first and second images into a plurality of blocks, the first and second images capable of realizing a three-dimensional (3D) image using binocular disparity; searching the first and second images for pairs of matching blocks and calculating depth information of each of the pairs of matching blocks based on a difference in position between each of the pairs of matching blocks; and calculating stereoscopic information of the 3D image based on the depth information of each of the pairs of matching blocks. Therefore, it is possible to effectively provide stereoscopic information of a 3D image for various purposes.

  • Publication number: 20120062558
    Abstract: A mobile terminal and a method for controlling the operation of the mobile terminal are provided. In the method, a stereoscopic 3D image that utilizes binocular disparity between a left-eye image and a right-eye image is displayed on a display and a stereoscopic 3D pointer is displayed in the stereoscopic 3D image when a user's hand is detected according to analysis of visual data acquired by a camera. The position of the stereoscopic 3D pointer is moved according to movement of the hand when the movement of the hand is detected according to analysis of the visual data. According to this method, the operation of the mobile terminal can be controlled by the user's hand movement or gesture.
