Zusammenfassung:An exemplary depth control method includes following steps: receiving input images corresponding to different views; generating at least one depth-related information map according to the input images; estimating a confidence level by measuring quality of the depth-related information map; and adjusting the depth-related information map according to the confidence level. In addition, an exemplary depth control apparatus includes a depth-related information map generation circuit, a quality measurement circuit and an adjustment circuit. The depth-related information map generation circuit receives input images corresponding to different views, and generates at least one depth-related information map according to the input images. The quality measurement circuit estimates a confidence level by measuring quality of the depth-related information map. The adjustment circuit adjusts the depth-related information map according to the confidence level. Then the depth-related information maps are used by an image interpolation unit to interpolate output images.
