3D videos play an important role in adoption of 3DTV display modules for the masses because creating realistic contents for 3DTV is a hard and time-consuming process. In this paper, we consider the problem of generating three-view 3D video depth using a segment-based stereo algorithm and a depth camera (ZCam), and propose a new foreground/background video segmentation algorithm as well as a new segment-based stereo algorithm. By combining the depth camera (ZCam) and the stereo algorithm simultaneously, we can obtain better results compared to employing only a single method.
