Standardization of a new set of 3D formats has been initiated with the goal of improving the coding of stereo and multiview video, and also facilitating the generation of multiview output needed for auto-stereoscopic displays. Part of this effort will develop 3D and multiview extensions of the emerging standard for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). This paper outlines some of the key technologies and architectures being considered for standardization, and analyzes the viability, benefits and drawbacks of different codec designs.
