Abstract
Generating 3D content is described. A method includes identifying a group of videos of an event. The method includes detecting a first reference point in a first video and a second video from the group of videos. The method also includes creating a first three dimensional video frame based on a first video frame of the first video and a second video frame of the second video using the first reference point. The method further includes creating a second three dimensional video frame based on a third video frame of the first video and a fourth video frame of the second video using a second reference point. The method includes creating a three dimensional video by combining the first three dimensional frame and the second three dimensional frame in a sequential order based on respective timestamps of the first three dimensional frame and the second three dimensional frame.
