Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for spherical three dimensional video rendering for virtual reality. A method includes receiving a spherical two-dimensional (2D) input image and a corresponding spherical depth map to be used in a creation of a spherical three-dimensional (3D) video, determining, by a processing device, a pixel shift value for each pixel of the spherical 2D input image based on the spherical depth map, and generating, based on the spherical 2D input image and the pixel shift values, a modified spherical image, wherein the modified spherical image in combination with the spherical 2d input image comprises at least one frame in the spherical 3D video.
