The Project 3D Video Transformation is working on an implementation for three-dimensional video conferences. Therefore, the first step is to develop in Webcam quality and later use HD-format.
Based on Microsoft DirectShow, that is part of DirectX, two images of average eye separation of an installed Webcam-/HD camera should be sent with the help of multiplexer over the network.
The multiplexes accumulate the single images of both cameras to one data stream. On receiver side the data stream runs through a demultiplexer and the reclaimed single images will be overlaid and different coloured. The images of the left and right camera have different colours. By means of 3D-glass provided with special filters you can see three-dimensional images of the conference participant.
The work to get a good compression of the video stream is done by accelerating the transmission over the network. The next step will be the extension for audio stream.
