THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIDEO ENCODING APPARATUS, THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIDEO CAPTURING APPARATUS, AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIDEO ENCODING METHOD

WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/042895

A1

Provided is a three-dimensional video encoding apparatus, wherein encoding efficiency can be improved by adaptively switching the method of setting reference pictures according to the amount of left-right parallax. A parallax acquisition unit (101) calculates parallax information between a first-viewpoint video signal and a second-viewpoint video signal using a means such as parallax matching, a reference picture setting unit (102) determines reference picture setting information, such as how to select a reference picture upon encoding a picture to be encoded or how to allot a reference index to the reference picture, from the parallax information, and an encoding unit (103) compresses and encodes image data of the picture to be encoded according to the reference picture selection information.
