Abstract

Mobile TV applications have gained a lot of interest in recent years. The ability to provide the user with a personal viewing experience as well as the flexibility to add new services have made this technology attractive for media companies and broadcasters around the world. In this chapter, we present a novel approach for mobile 3-D video and data services that extend the regular 2-D video service of the Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) system. We demonstrate the main concepts and features of our 3-D DMB approach and discuss our latest research on the efficient compression of stereoscopic 3-D imagery.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Interestingly, this observation only holds true for stereoscopic imagery degraded by blur. If, instead, one of the views is impaired by blockiness, the perceived visual quality seems to be an average of the image quality of the left and right-view images [26, 34].

  2. 2.

    Note that the coding distortions (PSNR values) of the righteye views were calculated on the down-sampled imagery.
