Fun overview! I’m currently using depth maps to convert older movies into Stereoscopic 3D (soon launching House on Haunted Hill with Vincent Price!) We start with AI generated depth maps and then do a ton of manual corrections to make sure the depth is accurate. One of the fun unintended consequences of this method is that I can render the movie in RGB+D and view it in hologram form on the Portrait! The Looking Glass has actually been helpful for spotting depth map errors. The hologram makes it easier to pinpoint more subtle issues that aren’t always obvious at first glance on a flat screen. Just need the Looking Glass Landscape next!
Wow! That's super neat- that must've taken you a minute to convert! Movie-wise, that's definitely more suited for a landscape Looking Glass but glad you got it to work with what you have at the moment and stay tuned ;)
What are some of your favorite ways to generate AI generated depth maps so that you can render the video files in RGB+D to display on the Portrait? I'm trying to do the same thing but it doesn't seem like a widespread knowledge pool online! This is specifically why I bought the Portrait so I'm glad to see someone is having success!
For anyone else interested, Bryan from their developer team recommend Owl3d or RunwayML, both of which have options for generating a depth map from video.

what software you using to make stereoscopic 3d from depth map?? i have depth map video and i dont know how to convert, kindly help..
Besides being useful, I think depth maps can also be very pretty. I really enjoyed this video, thank you!
Super duper pretty - agreed! Thanks so much :-)
