Abstract:
A method of processing in an image processor a pair of images intended for stereoscopic presentation to identify left-eye and right-eye images of the pair. The method includes dividing both images of the pair into a plurality of like image regions, determining for each region a disparity value between the images of the pair to produce a set of disparity values, deriving for each region a confidence factor for the disparity value, determining a correlation parameter between the set of disparity values and a corresponding set of disparity values from a disparity model, in which the contribution of the disparity value for a region to the said correlation parameter is weighted in dependence on the confidence factor for that region, and identifying from said correlation parameter the left-eye and right-eye images of the pair, wherein the left eye and right images form a stereoscopic pair.
