Infrastructures for Home Delivery, Interfacing, Captioning, and Viewing of 3-D Content

This paper discusses considerations for coding and transport of stereoscopic 3-D video, options for dual-channel encoding as well as frame-compatible delivery. A description of the use of digital interfaces for stereoscopic 3-D delivery from set-top boxes (STBs) to displays is included along with an overview of 3-D eyewear issues. Complexities such as rendering captions without introducing depth conflicts and future directions are also discussed.
