Relationship between Fluctuations of Disparity Data and Picture Quality in a Stereoscopic Image

Abstract

In order to estimate the degradation of picture quality of a stereoscopic image reconstructed with a monocular image and the disparity data that have some fluctuations, a series of experiments was carried out. The results show that the degradation is most sensitively detected when the spatial frequency of the fluctuation is about 4.5 cycle/deg, and that the peak frequency is constant irrespective of either width or slant of objects.
