Stereo Generator
Nowadays lots of films are created for Stereo 3D format. This fact gives rise to the demand for convenient and high quality software for generating stereo from 2D+depth video sequences. YUVsoft Stereo Generator plugin for The Foundry Nuke is ready to help companies specializing in the conversion of 2D to stereo 3D content.
Key features of YUVsoft Stereo Generator are:
- Output formats:
- Stereo pair
- Multiview sequence consisting of views generated for different parallax values
- “Soft edge” technologies for correct processing of semi-transparent boundaries between foreground objects and background
- Support of external clean plates (reconstructed background areas)
- Depth map dilation and Depth map smoothing technologies to compensate for inaccurate depth maps
- Interlaced output format for stereo 3D preview on certain 3D displays
- Generation of the occlusion mask
- No resolution limitations, works with 4K and 8K content
- 32 bit depth
YUVsoft Stereo Generator in use:
The plugin for The Foundry Nuke uses the source video and a source depth map as input. You then get the stereo pair footage as output. To improve quality, you also need restored background. You can obtain this background data as well as depth map for restored background areas using the YUVsoft Background Reconstruction plugin.
