==METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE ENCODING, AND METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE DECODING - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18495504 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE ENCODING, AND METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMAGE DECODING

==Simplified Explanation==

The apparatus described in the abstract is for image encoding, specifically for encoding a stereoscopic 3D image. The apparatus includes a transmitter memory to store a program for encoding the image and an encoding processor to execute the program. The encoding processor generates streams from left and right images, decodes them, and generates new streams to create a final encoded image.

* Transmitter memory stores program for encoding stereoscopic 3D image

==Original Abstract Submitted==

Provided is an apparatus for image encoding, the apparatus including: a transmitter memory configured to store a program for encoding a stereoscopic 3D image; and an encoding processor configured to execute the program stored in the transmitter memory, wherein the encoding processor is configured to: generate a first stream and a second stream from a left image and a down-converted right image, decode the first stream and the second stream to generate a decoded left image and a first decoded right image; generate a third stream from the decoded left image, the first decoded right image, and an original right image, and decode the third stream to generate a second decoded right image; and generate a fourth stream from the second decoded right image and the original right image.
