Stereo 3D Broadcast with MVC
Developed by the Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute, Multiview Video Coding (MVC) is the latest extension to the H.264/AVC video compression standard. This new amendment enables stereo 3D transmission which is backward compatible both to H.264/AVC and 2D while also significantly cutting back on data rate requirements – unlike traditional techniques like side-by-side transmission. Based on MVC, Stereo 3D is set to be the next big thing in TV broadcasting.
Benefits
- MVC significantly reduces data rate requirements for 3D video services
- Old receivers automatically extract the H.264/AVC compatible 2D view
- Applicable to many transmission channels, e.g. 2nd generation DVB standards (DVB-S2 satellite or DVB-T2 terrestrial) as well as cable and mobile IPTV
Future Objectives
- With novel transmission standards such as DVB-S2 or DVB-T2, protection of the base view against transmission errors can be selectively improved (unequal protection), thus extending the coverage area of the 2D signal while reducing the overall transmission costs for the introduction of the
3D service. - Future autostereoscopic displays require more than two views allowing different viewing positions in front of the screen without the need of wearing glasses. MVC also supports the coding of multiple views within Stereo 3D Broadcast and compatible reception a single video stream.
