3D Image Coding Techniques
Motion compensation is utilized in Stereoscopic Video Coding
In video, time is often considered as the third dimension. Still image coding techniques can be expanded to an extra dimension.
JPEG2000 uses wavelets, and these can also be used to encode motion without gaps between blocks in an adaptive way. Fractional pixel affine transformations lead to bleeding between adjacent pixels. If no higher internal resolution is used the delta images mostly fight against the image smearing out. The delta image can also be encoded as wavelets, so that the borders of the adaptive blocks match.
2D+Delta Encoding techniques utilize H.264 and MPEG-2 compatible coding and can use motion compensation to compress between stereoscopic images.
Expanding the 8x8 JPEG blocks into the third dimension that is into 8x8x8 cubes and modifying the DCT more into a DFT enables compression of linear translations with speeds below and around one pixel per frame (sub-pixel precision).

Famous quotes containing the words image and/or techniques:
“You say your own soul supplies you with some sort of an idea or image of God. But at the same time you acknowledge you have, properly speaking, no idea of your own soul. You even affirm that spirits are a sort of beings altogether different from ideas. Consequently that no idea can be like a spirit. We have therefore no idea of any spirit.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
“It is easy to lose confidence in our natural ability to raise children. The true techniques for raising children are simple: Be with them, play with them, talk to them. You are not squandering their time no matter what the latest child development books say about “purposeful play” and “cognitive learning skills.””
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
