Abstract
A device for creating multi-view video contents includes a virtual view position and distribution unit that calculates a plurality of virtual views corresponding to the number of predetermined virtual views based on input information and distributes the calculated positions of the plurality of virtual views to a plurality of view synthesis processing units; a view synthesis processor that operates the plurality of view synthesis processing units in parallel, allows each of the view synthesis processing units to create at least one virtual view video corresponding to a position of at least one virtual view distributed from the virtual view position calculation and distribution unit, and performs partial multiplexing based on at least one created virtual view video; and a video integration unit that integrates a plurality of partially multiplexed videos output from the plurality of view synthesis processing units.
