Abstract
An apparatus and method for generating a three-dimensional (3D) path are provided. The apparatus includes: a polygon generation unit to generate a left polygon and a right polygon on the left and the right of path data, respectively, based on a linear interpolation point of the path data; and a polygon conversion unit to apply a height value to the linear interpolation point based on the left polygon and the right polygon and to thereby generate the 3D path.
