Abstract: A method and apparatus are described including accepting a first and a second stereoscopic eye frame line image, determining a coarse image shift between the first stereoscopic eye frame line image and the second stereoscopic eye frame line image, determining a fine image shift responsive to the coarse image shift, forwarding one of the first stereoscopic eye frame line image and the second stereoscopic eye frame line image and forwarding data corresponding to the fine image shift and metadata for further processing.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described including determining an inter-frame object displacement for each object in a left eye image frame pair, determining an inter-frame object displacement for each object in a right eye image frame pair, determining a convergence shifting field between each object in the left eye image and the right eye image pair, determining an amount of motion blur responsive to the inter-frame object displacement for each object in the left eye image frame pair, the inter-frame object displacement for each object in the right eye image frame pair, and the convergence shifting field between each object in the left eye image and the right eye image pair and adjusting the motion blur by the amount of motion blur.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for projecting digital video content and for discouraging recording of the projected video content using a video camera or other sampling recording device are described, including accepting a frame of digital video content, time-shifting a bit-plane of the frame of the digital video content at a phase difference, projecting the time-shifted frame, repeating the accepting, time-shifting and projecting acts for a number of frames, adjusting the phase difference and repeating all of the above acts. Also described are a method and apparatus for generating an indication of a mid-scale level bit-plane of a frame of digital video content, including accepting a frame of digital video content, accepting a selection of mid-scale level bit-plane of the frame and generating an indication of the selection of the mid-scale level bit-plane of the frame. Time-shifting bit-planes of a frame generates in the recorded video a flicker.

Abstract: Described herein are a method and apparatus including receiving digital video content, receiving an indication of an object of an image of the digital video content, receiving an indication of a grouping of the object in a frame sequence per second, swapping forward in time the grouping of the object with a time-following object to generate a first non-sequential frame of digital video content, performing an object assignment for the forward time swap, swapping backward in time the grouping of the object with a time-following object to generate a second non-sequential frame of digital video content and performing an object assignment for the backward time swap. The swapping backward in time and the swapping forward in time cause flicker in a recording of the digital video content.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards enhancing the reproduction of three-dimensional dynamic scenes on digital light processing (DLP) and (liquid crystal display) LCD projectors and displays by adding optimal amount of motion blur to stimulate the covered eye to continue perceiving scene picture changes. Too much blur would bring smearing, but a lack of blur induces motion breaking.

Abstract: The present principles are directed towards enhancing the reproduction of dynamic scenes on Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) monitors by employing temporal control over the duration of frame blanking of the display back-light. Particularly, the greater the image difference between neighboring frames, the wider the main back-light frame blanking becomes, and vice versa—smaller image difference between consecutive frames will automatically inflict narrower main back-light frame blanking.
