Abstract:
A three-dimensional (3D) video encoding/decoding apparatus and 3D video encoding/decoding method using depth transition data. The 3D video encoding/decoding apparatus and 3D video encoding/decoding method calculate a depth transition for the position of each pixel in accordance with the change in views, quantize the position of the calculated depth transition, and code the quantized position of the depth transition.
