Abstract: Due to the recent advancements in displace and camera technologies, new 3D-video services are emerging that will change the landscape of future entertainment, security, and communication industries. Prominent application scenarios are Free Viewpoint TV, Realistic-TV, in-car 3D-infotainment, 3D-personal video recording and playback, 3D-surveillance, high-end medical imaging, etc. This talk will highlight the scaling trends and performance/power-related challenges for emerging 3D-Multimedia based on Multiview Video Coding standard. Various algorithm and architecture level techniques will be presented that enable low-power processing of multiview video coding. Key topics are: complexity reduction schemes, parallel architecture for joint motion and disparity estimation, low-power on-chip video memory, and application-driven power management. This work demonstrates that exploitation of extensive correlation in the 3D-neighborhood and application-specific properties provide a great potential for power savings and enable efficient adaptivity to react to the run-time changing scenarios of workloads.
