Intelligent Software Component Makes Logical Depth Decisions with Basic User Assistance - Results in Strikingly Natural 3D Images - Does Not Require Layering and Tracing, in Contrast with other 2D to 3D Conversion Tools The Important Differences Between HumanEyes' New Technology and The Rest: HumanEyes 2D to 3D combines simplicity with unprecedented quality and impact.
In contrast to other methods, the HumanEyes user does not have to separate a 2D picture into layers by tracing edges of objects.
In addition, because HumanEyes does not utilize layers, the new HumanEyes 2D to 3D technology also permits a more natural looking, continuous 3D effect not tainted by layering.
Sophisticated, Intelligent Algorithms Make Depth Decisions with Simple User Input With HumanEyes 2D to 3D, the user simply marks a few areas of an image according to general placement (e.g, foreground, middleground, background).
A highly advanced, powerful algorithm intelligently calculates the depth parameters of the entire image.
This ease in identifying image areas is extremely important when working with natural scenes that include content such as hair or plants, whose edges are very difficult to trace.
