Patent number: 10554954Abstract: A method of adjusting depth in a stereoscopic video may include generating a left-eye viewing frame of a stereoscopic video. The left-eye viewing frame may include a plurality of left-eye viewing frame elements. The method may also include generating a right-eye viewing frame of the stereoscopic video. The right-eye viewing frame may correspond to the left-eye viewing frame and may include a plurality of right-eye viewing frame elements. Further, each right-eye viewing frame element may correspond to one of the left-eye viewing frame elements. The method may additionally include determining an offset between each right-eye viewing frame element and its corresponding left-eye viewing frame element. Further, the method may include applying a uniform summing factor to each offset to uniformly shift by substantially the same amount each right-eye viewing frame element with respect to its corresponding left-eye viewing frame element such that a perceived focus point is adjusted.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2018Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: BITANIMATE, INC.Inventors: Behrooz A Maleki, Sarvenaz Sarkhosh
