Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for managing multipurpose video streaming and a method of the same, which are capable of creating high-resolution video frames for displaying and storing received video data in real time and low-resolution video frames for network transmission, and managing the created video stream. The apparatus for managing mulitpurpose video streaming includes an encoding unit for creating and outputting video frames including at least one of high-resolution video frames and low-resolution video frames with respect to video data; and a path determining unit for identifying the at least one of high-resolution video frames and low-resolution video frames in the output video frames and for determining a process path such that the high-resolution video frames are stored and the low-resolution video frames are transmitted.

Abstract: A disparity prediction stage and a motion prediction stage predict a disparity vector and a motion vector by extending a MPEG-2 structure into a view axis and using spatial/temporal correlation. A disparity/motion compensation stage compensates an image reconstructed by the disparity prediction stage and the motion prediction stage by using a sub-pixel compensation method. A residual image encoding stage performs an encoding to provide a better visual quality and a three-dimensional effect of an original image and the reconstructed image. A bit rate control stage controls a bit rate for assigning an effective amount of bit to each frame on the reconstructed image according to a bit rate. An entropy encoding stage generates a bit stream on multi-view video source data according to the bit rate.
