Description
The present invention relates to a video signal control apparatus for viewing 3D video, and in particular, receives a sync signal output from the 3D video playback apparatus, finds a sync signal in a normal range, and then stops supplying power to the sync signal receiver. The receiver is not operated and power is supplied to the synchronization signal receiver every predetermined time to receive the synchronization signal output from the 3D image reproducing apparatus, thereby reducing the power consumption, and part of the synchronization signal due to noise according to the surrounding environment. The video reproducing apparatus and the shutter glass are related to the video signal control apparatus for three-dimensional image viewing that can be synchronized accurately by blocking the synchronous signal of the noise generated portion even if there is an error.
In general, an image reproducing apparatus for watching a 3D stereoscopic image is classified into a glasses type using special glasses and a non glasses type using no special glasses. The eyeglass type includes a color filter method for separating and selecting images using a color filter having a complementary color relationship, a polarization filter method for separating images of left and right eyes using a light shielding effect by a combination of orthogonal polarizing elements, and a left eye video signal. In response to a synchronization signal for projecting the right and right eye image signals to the screen, there is a shutter glass method that can sense a three-dimensional effect by alternately blocking the left and right eyes.
The shutter glass method uses the parallax of both eyes, and synchronizes the image displayed on the image reproducing apparatus with the on / off of the left and right eyes of the shutter glass so that the images observed from different angles recognize the sense of space due to the brain action.
