3D video coding is one of the processing stages required to manifest stereoscopic content into a home. There are three techniques which are used to achieve stereoscopic video:

Color shifting (anaglyph) Pixel subsampling (side-by-side, checkerboard, quincunx) Enhanced video stream coding (2D+Delta, 2D+Metadata, 2D plus depth)

Spatial video encoding MV-HEVC, extension of HEVC (H.265) Multiview Video Coding (MVC 3D)
