Abstract
A method, medium, and apparatus processing depth information of a depth image. The apparatus adaptively presenting information on depth information includes a section determination unit determining which one of plural sections respective depth values for pixels of the 3D image fall within, with the plural sections being defined by a measured limit distance for the 3D image being parsed into the plural sections based on distance based depth resolution information, and an adaptive quantization unit to selectively quantize and represent each depth value based on a respective predefined quantization setting of the one section.
