Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods and systems of efficiently, effectively, and accurately preparing images for a 2D to 3D conversion process by pre-treating occlusions and transparencies in original 2D images. A single 2D image, or a sequence of images, is ingested, segmented into discrete elements, and the discrete elements are individually reconstructed. The reconstructed elements are then re-composited and ingested into a 2D to 3D conversion process.
