Abstract

Systems and methods are described for generating a three dimensional (3D) effect from a two dimensional (2D) image. The methods may include generating a depth map based on a 2D image, identifying a camera path, generating one or more extremal views based on the 2D image and the camera path, generating a global point cloud by inpainting occlusion gaps in the one or more extremal views, generating one or more intermediate views based on the global point cloud and the camera path, and combining the one or more extremal views and the one or more intermediate views to produce a 3D motion effect.
